What this home chargesAsk themnot published anywhere

Source: Somerset Council, Adult Social Care Fees 2026/27. Nursing rates are stated to exclude NHS-funded nursing care. The higher nursing figure is OPMH nursing, for older people with mental health needs, effective 2026/27; we last checked it on 11 August 2026. We do not print an estimate of what Tidings charges a self-funding family, because no such figure has been published and we will not invent one. The council rate is the firm number to negotiate against.

How the inspectors rated it

Good

The Care Quality Commission rated Tidings Good when it last published an assessment, in May 2023.

Inspected in the last three yearsThe national middle is 4.2 years. How we measure this.

That was 3.2 years ago. Managers move on, owners sell up, staff turn over. A rating this old describes the home as it was in 2023 — not as it is this month. Three questions worth asking on the phone: who is the manager now, how long have they been in post, and how many of the care staff have been there more than a year?

Safe — Good Effective — Good Caring — Good Responsive — Outstanding Well-led — Good

Would the council pay towards this?
