Costs to expect
We estimate Claremont House at £1,140–£1,390 a week for residential care (dementia), based on published prices in the region. Over a year that is roughly £59k–£72k.
Ask whether the fee changes if needs increase, and what is extra: hairdressing, chiropody, outings and newspapers are often charged separately.
With savings below £23,250, Kirklees Council may contribute once it has carried out a free needs assessment.
