About Queen Elizabeth Park
Queen Elizabeth Park is a nursing home in Guildford, Surrey, caring for older people who need qualified nursing support, including many people living with dementia. A nursing home is somebody's home as well as a place where nursing happens, and the two have to sit together properly. Our nurses manage medication, wound care, mobility, nutrition, continence and complex long term conditions, keep accurate records and work closely with GPs and community teams. That is the floor rather than the ceiling. What we watch for beyond it is whether people are actually living here. Whether meals are worth eating. Whether the resident who has gone quiet this week has been noticed. Whether somebody who can no longer speak easily is still being spoken to rather than about. Whether visitors feel welcome or feel they are interrupting. None of that appears in a care plan and all of it decides what the place is like to live in. Respite stays are available, including for people recovering after a hospital admission. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
