I don't get where they get these costs from, I reckon they think of a number then double it. If say, a home has 20 residents, then all the costs would be divided by 20 (the staff (mostly part timers on minimum wage), and some running costs. Obviously these costs amount to a fair bit, but with an income of £1.5 million or so the bosses must be raking it in.
For a lot less they surely could have a live-in help in their own home. Parents could keep their home and that 87k pa could easily cover wages, especially with free accommodation thrown in.
