The Grange is a truly outstanding nursing home where you, or someone you care about, can live happily, well-supported by friendly staff, in comfortable surroundings. The rooms are bright, warm, well-appointed and exceptionally clean. There are two nurses on duty 24/7 if you require a bit of extra looking
after. There is a lovely restaurant where you can have your meals, or these can be taken in your room if you prefer. There is a menu that changes daily and seasonally. The food is beautifully cooked and served and all dietary needs are taken into account. There is a wide range of activities available on a daily basis to keep you busy, entertained or amused, depending on how you feel on any particular day.
There are communal rooms where residents can meet for coffee, activities or a chat. There is always someone to talk to. It is a very friendly place to be. The management and staff go out of their way to make every individual feel welcome, included and happy.

The manager has been such a supportive presence for us during this challenging time. Having someone who genuinely cares who has helped us with these important as been amazing, her enthusiasm really shines through. I can't praise this care home enough, all the staff have shown exceptional care and patience
when dealing with my father who can be challenging at times. Their understanding and professionalism have made a significant difference to his quality of life. The food is also truly divine, compliments to the Chef. Thanks again for everything and making my father feel so welcome.

My mum has only moved in a month ago. We did have a few teething problems with her routine but this has definitely improved. I think communications can take too long. If I email the call supervisor about my mum, it can take a while for a response. I do have to choose various things like sorting a hospital
bed, phone repositioning and making sure my mum has the appropriate care. Communication needs to be quicker between relatives and the staff.

My husband has only been a resident for a few weeks after a long spell in hospital but already the benefits of his move to Reigate Grange are very evident and for the first time in many months I am beginning to relax, knowing that he is truly being well looked after.

Until my mother was poorly and hospitalised and had always promised her that neither she nor my dad would ever go to a care home. I visited Reigate Grange unannounced and from the moment and set foot through the door felt safe and welcomed. Every single staff member smiled at me and said hello. When
Mum arrived she was greeted by name and made to feel so very welcome. I have witnessed excellent care to both my mother and other residents with care needs not only being immediately responded to but proactively noticed. Reigate Grange clearly recognises the triangle of care and the importance of care needs. There's so much more I can say!

Reply from Judy Urmossy, Client Liaison Manager at Signature at Reigate Grange

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such lovely feedback. We are so delighted to have your mum with us, she is a ray of sunshine! We are heartened that you find our home so welcoming, we always try to make each resident feel very special, which they are to us.

My mother has been at Signature at Reigate Grange from when it opened in 2018. The care she has received, as a resident with Alzheimer's and crippling arthritis, has been nothing but outstanding. The staff treat my mother with the utmost respect. They are patient and kind and genuinely concerned for
her well-being.

Reply from Judy Urmossy, Client Liaison Manager at Signature at Reigate Grange

My mum lives in Hilltops which is the specialised dementia unit. It has a homely atmosphere and the staff are like family. They are incredible and the service they provide is of the highest quality but is their passion and care that goes beyond. The home is now being run by a new management team who
are dedicated to providing an outstanding service.

My wife and I feel that we are getting the best care possible. Management are approachable and usually deals adequately with any problems that arise. The food is adequate but uninspiring in preparation and presentation. A more imaginative approach would be welcome.

My wife has been a resident at Reigate Grange for nearly three years. During this time and despite several management changes I have never had cause to worry about the standard of care, which has always been second to none. Many individual carers excel and under the new management team, the atmosphere
is friendly and positive. The environment and the standard of care are both excellent.

Reply from Judy Urmossy, Client Liaison Manager at Signature at Reigate Grange

Thank you for your kind words, we really do appreciate feedback. We are delighted to know that the new management team is working out so well and the atmosphere in our home is positive and friendly. Our aim has been to create the nicest environment for our residents to live and thrive in.

When you walk through the doors at Reigate Grange there is an immediate buzz and warmth. Staff are always smiling and welcoming and show genuine affection and respect for the residents. The atmosphere is like a favourite hotel - professionally run but feels like a place you could call home.
The cafe
and shared spaces are immediately attractive and challenge traditional views of what to expect from a care home. Visiting a relative, you might almost want to stay on yourself!

My mother stayed at Reigate Grange for two weeks of respite care in January this year. She was looked after so well, with care and thoughtfulness, which is so important as my mother has moderate Alzheimer’s disease. Every member of staff from the receptionists to the nurses were kind and considerate
and went out of their way to make my mum’s stay special. It worked so well that we are now moving my mum into Reigate Grange as a permanent resident from April as there is no place that could be better for her.

Reply from Judy Urmossy, Client Liaison Manager at Signature at Reigate Grange

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. All the team here strive to provide the best care possible for every one of our residents whether they are with us for a couple of weeks or longer. We are delighted to see Mum settling in and thriving in the short time she has been with us, she is throwing herself into all the activities and really enjoying being part of our family.

I have been a resident at the Grange for 5 months and I have nothing but praise for the kind and friendly staff. I have always been looked after with thoughtfulness, patience and good humour. The home is purpose-built with wonderful facilities. It's light, beautifully furnished and warm. The meals are
quite delicious and there is always a choice available. There are plenty of activities should you wish to join in. All in all, a perfect home.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.752)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.752) out of 10 for Signature at Reigate Grange 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 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 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 4.752 for Signature at Reigate Grange is calculated as follows: ( (329 Excellents x 5) + (63 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 403 Ratings = 4.752

  • 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 Signature at Reigate Grange is based on 33 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 95 registered maximum number of service users is 19, which has been reached with 33 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.

Job Title: Dementia Care Manager

Joined: 2020

I first joined Signature in October 2020 as a Care Supervisor in the dementia care community. I was then promoted to the role of Dementia Care Manager. If there is one thing that I've learned in my years of working with people living with dementia it is: the happiest and most fulfilled people are those who devote themselves to something bigger and more unique. There's nothing more rewarding than helping the most vulnerable people to continue to live their lives with dignity and respect.

During the Covid pandemic, I transitioned into the care team and found a job I am truly passionate about. I soon progressed to become a Care Supervisor, and then in December 2023, I was invited to take the role of Acting Residential Care Manager. My official appointment to the position of Residential Care Manager came in February 2024. It's a huge privilege to be able to develop my career from within Reigate Grange and to provide continuity for our deserving residents. I’m committed to the values that Signature holds and proud of the care we deliver on a daily basis.

Ancuta

Ancuta Tiriteu

Job Title: Head Chef

Joined: 2023

Born and raised in Romania in a family that loves food, I became passionate about food and I love cooking with excellent quality, fresh ingredients. I attended a private college in Culinary Arts in 2013 and I was classically trained by one of the best French chefs. For over 10 years, I have had the pleasure the working and cooking in luxury establishments. I love cooking traditional British food, and I also enjoy exploring other cuisines - with the Mediterranean being one of my favourites. To me, there is no great chef without a great team, you must have people around you who understand the same “music“. They need you, but you need them desperately if you want to achieve excellence. In the past few years, I have focused my personal life more towards healthy food choices and I enjoy a very healthy diet.

Chloe Krokidis

Job Title: Wellbeing and Lifestyle Manager

Joined: 2018

I joined as Wellbeing and Lifestyle Manager in June 2018 as part of the commissioning management team at Reigate Grange and completely new to the care industry. I come from a background within the entertainment industry, an industry I was fortunate to work in for over a decade, working both in hotels and aboard cruise ships as a singer and dancer within the Production Team and Manager of the team. My background has given me a wonderful insight into fantastic customer service and organising and delivering the activities and events within the home has been extremely rewarding on a daily basis. Since being with Signature I have also been fortunate enough to have completed my Hospitality Manager certificate, specialising in Conference and Events Management. I honestly thought leaving the entertainment industry that I would never find a job I enjoyed as much, yet my time here at Reigate Grange has been amazing and extremely fulfilling.
