Additional extras in Norfolk may include hairdressing, chiropody, physiotherapy, other forms of therapy, trips out, and specialist equipment.
What factors affect Norfolk care home fees?
In Norfolk, care home fees vary based on factors such as the type of care needed (with nursing care costing more than residential care), the facilities and activities available, room size and other features, and the staff-to-resident ratio.
Homes in more central areas may be more expensive due to higher property and carer costs.
Are all care homes in Norfolk regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC)?
Yes, every Norfolk care home has been given a rating by England's Care Quality Commission (CQC).
The CQC checks care homes to ensure they're safe and well-run. They regularly conduct inspections and publish reports to help care-seekers make the right choice.

What Norfolk care homes offer respite care?
If you're looking for temporary respite care, we have 34 respite care homes in Norfolk that offer short-term stays.
