About Puttenham Hill House Care Home
Here at Puttenham Hill House Care Home, we provide nursing care for people living in and around Guildford, Surrey. Our home supports a wide range of needs, including dementia care, care for older people, support for those living with a physical disability or a visual or hearing impairment, and care for younger adults. We also offer respite stays for people who need short term support, or whose family carers need a break. We know that choosing a care home is one of the most significant decisions a family can make, and we do not take that lightly. Our nursing team works alongside care staff to make sure each person is supported in a way that reflects who they are, what matters to them, and how they want to live their day. We take time to get to know residents properly, not just their care needs, but their routines, their preferences, and the things that bring them comfort and enjoyment. Our most recent CQC rating reflects areas where we have been working hard to improve, and we are open about that. We have taken the feedback seriously and have made meaningful changes to how we work. We believe that honesty with families is essential, and we would rather have a straightforward conversation about where we are and where we are heading than paint an unrealistic picture. Puttenham Hill House is a place where people are treated with genuine respect and where staff take real pride in the care they give. If you are considering us for yourself or for someone you love, we warmly encourage you to come and visit, ask questions, and see the home for yourself.
