You will be expected to pay for all of your care and this is known as self-funding.

There is a sliding scale of local authority contribution between the two.

The local authority will offer their maximum support but that is typically around half of normal private care home room fees. Many people have the majority of their capital tied up in their Home. If your loved one are leaving their Home (and spouse no longer resides there) then the full Care Home fee will be covered by the local authority who are then refunded from the house sale proceeds. This is known as a “deferred placement”.

Unfortunately we cannot accomodate pets at Walton Park.

Here at Walton Park we have our wonderful activities coordinator who schedules a variety of activities for our residents each day. This varies from in house activities, in house visits, and off site trips too. 

We are proud to have our in house purpose built kitchen and wonderful Chefs, providing fresh, home cooked meals for our residents each day.

The menu is varied and available to view in the home each week, with different options provided to choose from for each meal.

 There are set meal times allocated for breakfast, lunch and dinner set up in our dining room, however of course we can be accomodating to each individuals’ needs within the home, and a tray service is available to have in-room dining at no extra charge.

The Chefs also prepare fresh treats and snacks throughout the day, which are freely available for our residents and guests of the Care Home to enjoy.

All our staff are DBS checked and regulated. Our care staff will hold a variety of HCA or care qualifications or working towards.

There is no generic answer for this, as our care at Walton Park is all on an individual needs basis. However we will always do everything we can to accomodate any changes in circumstances to enable our residents to stay with us, to the best of our ability.
