About Tandridge Heights
Tandridge Heights is a nursing home in Oxted, Surrey. We provide nursing care for older people and younger adults, we support people living with dementia, and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would rather you had that from us than came across it after a visit. The inspection identified things that fell short of what the people living here are entitled to expect, and we have accepted those findings. If you are considering the home, ask exactly what was found and exactly what has changed since, and press us if the answer is general rather than specific. Alongside that work, the daily business continues. Nurses are on duty at all hours, so medication, skin care, nutrition and pain are managed on site. People are supported to be up and dressed, to eat properly and to see their families whenever they want. For those living with dementia we keep routines and faces as steady as we can. Please visit before you decide anything. Read the inspection report in full, talk to residents and relatives, and judge the home on what you find.
