Our mother had never wanted to live in a nursing home but her experience at Tandridge Heights completely changed her view. The staff supported her in maintaining her independence as far as she was able. They were friendly and caring and spent time making sure that she was able to participate in activities
and everyday routines. On many occasions, Mum told us that she was very happy in her new home and would never wish to leave.

I have been frequently visiting a resident in your home and have found it to be extremely clean, sweet smelling and spacious. The staff are all very friendly, accommodating and kind to both residents and visitors.
The food looks delicious and nourishing and the residents seem extremely well cared for.
Great

My husband was admitted for end of life care. The nursing and care was excellent. His room was like a hotel room, en-suite. He was only there for 2 weeks but was comfortable. The food was also excellent, as were the facilities. The atmosphere was friendly an relaxed. Staff and the manager were always
helpful. I cannot speak highly enough of Tandridge Heights. We chose this nursing home after viewing others locally.

Extremely well managed care home. Professional and efficient but more importantly they put the "home" in care home. The staff treat the residents with dignity and professionalism but truly care. They treat the residents like their own family. There is love and attention bestowed on the residents like
their own family. The facilities are excellent the house is exceptionally clean and the residents kept personally clean again in a respectful way with dignity. The food is excellent its like a five star hotel nice touches with the menus listing what is available without a doubt I would recommend. The manager deserves a medal.

My father became a resident of Tandridge Heights Nursing Home in April 2017. During his short stay at the home he was treated with the utmost care and attention. The staff were wonderful, caring and looked after his many needs. He was very happy and felt he was always treated with dignity. We were
able to visit him at any time and were always made to feel welcome. I would recommend the home to anyone.

I was resident at Tandridge Heights for two weeks following a hip operation and could not fault them in any way. The food was home cooked and well presented. Smaller amounts were served, always with a choice and suitable for elderly people and looked tempting and tasty. The staff were all pleasant and
listened if you had a problem and then acted on it. In fact, it is a care home with the residents very much in mind. Should I eventually need full-time care, Tandridge Heights will be my choice.

The standard of overall care and opportunities to socialise and join activities were very good. The nursing staff were particularly professional and caring. We found the management to be generally available and very helpful. The room was pleasant and a good size but the furnishings needed attention.
General housekeeping could be improved ie. Putting clothes away tidily and cleaning more thoroughly.

My sister-in-law was in Tandridge Heights, Oxted for a period of fifteen months.
She was extremely happy and the care she received from all members of the staff was excellent. The last couple of weeks was very difficult for us as the end was nearing. We found all the staff and nurses very very supportive
and the way they looked after her with extreme care.
We shall always be very grateful to them all.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.820)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.820) out of 10 for Barchester Tandridge Heights Nursing and Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.820 for Barchester Tandridge Heights Nursing and Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (214 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 256 Ratings = 4.82

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barchester Tandridge Heights Nursing and Care Home is based on 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 75 registered maximum number of service users is 15, which has been reached with 22 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Nisha

Nisha Sebastian - Price

Job Title: Director (Audiology Services)

Joined: 2020

Nisha works with Tandridge Heights as a sole trader to provide audiology services. Nisha is a qualified solicitor with over 10 years of experience working in the City specialising in medical negligence and catastrophic injury. Following the arrival of her two young boys, she decided to leave her career in law and create a business to channel her passion for standards of care while using her legal knowledge. Nisha leads a team of staff that are passionate about ear care and who understand just how important hearing is. To meet resident’s hearing needs, they have developed a unique approach so that they can look after the health of resident’s ears, as well as their hearing, from the first time they see the resident. Every resident they see will receive a free Ear and Hearing Health Check. The resident’s journey begins with a short 10-minute assessment to check the health of the ear and identify any concerns or build-up of wax. If a hearing loss is identified, they offer a free and comprehensive Full Hearing Assessment during which the resident will undergo a series of further tests to identify the type of hearing loss. The audiologist will go through the different options to suit the resident’s need and with a FLEX:TRIAL, their audiologist can monitor how and where the resident uses their hearing aid so that it can be tailored to their specific requirements. The audiologist also provides aftercare services and a personalised care plan. A video otoscope is used to check the ear so that the residents can see for themselves what the audiologist has found. If a loved one cannot be present, they are also able to send them a copy of the results, ensuring full transparency and peace of mind for everyone.
