It sits in Ware Rural ward, classed by ONS as smaller rural (nearer to a major town or city), among the 40% least deprived neighbourhoods in England. NHS services here are planned by NHS Central East ICB.

Where a resident needs nursing, the NHS pays part of the fee straight to the home as NHS-funded nursing care, regardless of who pays the rest.
