Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what is the average daily cost of a bed in (1) an acute hospital ward; (2) a nursing home; and (3) a residential care home, in England in the latest financial year for which information is available.

The average daily costs of a bed in an acute hospital ward and in a care home setting are calculated differently and come from different sources, so are not directly comparable.
