About St Anselm's Nursing Home
We at St Anselm's Nursing Home offer dedicated nursing care in the coastal town of Deal, Kent, providing a supportive setting for older people with a range of complex needs. Our home welcomes those requiring long term nursing support, dementia care, mental health support, and shorter respite stays. Nestled within the CT postcode area of Deal, our home benefits from the calm atmosphere of this historic seaside town on the East Kent coast. The location offers a peaceful environment for residents whilst remaining well connected for visiting family and friends from across Kent and the wider South East region. Our specialism in nursing care means qualified nurses are part of daily life at the home, supporting residents whose medical or clinical needs require ongoing professional attention. For older people living with dementia, we aim to provide a familiar and reassuring routine, recognising that consistency, patience, and gentle understanding matter enormously to those experiencing memory loss and confusion. Our mental health support extends this same compassionate approach to residents managing longer term conditions, whilst our respite care offers families a trusted place for loved ones during periods when regular carers need a break or recovery time is needed after hospital. For families, this combination of specialisms means that a loved one's changing needs can often be met within one familiar environment, without the upheaval of moving between different types of care setting. We want to be transparent about our current position with the Care Quality Commission. Following the inspection in April 2026, our home received an overall rating of Inadequate, with Inadequate ratings in the Safe, Effective, and Well led domains, and Requires Improvement in Caring. We were rated Good for how Responsive our care is to individual needs. We understand that these ratings will be a serious concern for any family considering our home, and rightly so. A CQC rating of Inadequate signals that significant improvements are required, and we are committed to working openly with the regulator, residents, and relatives to address every area identified. Families are encouraged to read the full CQC report and to speak with us directly about the steps being taken. If you are exploring nursing care options in Deal for a parent, partner, or relative, we warmly invite you to get in touch. We understand how difficult these decisions can be, and we welcome honest conversations about what we can offer, where we are improving, and whether our home might be the right fit for your loved one at this stage of their life.
