Is this home safe?
Is the care effective?
The Effective domain was rated Good at the May 2024 inspection. This domain covers training, care planning, healthcare access, and food. The published summary does not describe specific training content, care plan examples, GP access arrangements, or food provision. Given that dementia is listed as a specialism, the expectation is that staff hold dementia-specific training, but the evidence to confirm this is not available in the published text.Is this home caring?
The Caring domain was rated Good at the May 2024 inspection. This covers staff warmth, dignity, respect, and independence. No specific inspector observations of staff interactions, no resident quotes, and no relative testimony are included in the available published summary. The rating is the primary evidence available.Is the home responsive?
The Responsive domain was rated Good at the May 2024 inspection. This covers activities, individual engagement, and how the home responds to changing needs. No specific activities are described in the available summary, and there is no detail about how the programme is tailored to individuals or what provision exists for residents who cannot join group sessions. The home's specialism in dementia and sensory impairment raises the expectation that individual engagement would be a priority.Is the home well-led?
The Well-led domain was rated Good at the May 2024 inspection. The registered manager and nominated individual are both named in the registration record, which suggests defined leadership accountability. The published summary does not describe management visibility, staff culture, or governance arrangements in any specific detail. The recovery from a previous Requires Improvement rating to Good across all domains implies that leadership-driven improvement has taken place.

All areas worth probing directly during a visit.
The DCC Verdict
Our editorial view, built from the three lenses: what families tell us, what inspectors record, and how the home sits against good dementia-care practice.
DCC Family Score
The home's most recent assessment in May 2024 rated all five domains as Good, which is a positive recovery from the earlier Requires Improvement rating. However, because the published report contains very limited specific detail, most scores sit in the 68-72 range reflecting positive but unverified general findings rather than strong, observation-backed evidence.
Homes in London typically score 68–82.The three-lens summary
What families tell us
Families describe finding friendly faces and a caring approach here. One family shared how their father felt genuinely content during his time at Rosclare, with staff who were consistently approachable and kind throughout his stay.
What inspectors have recorded
The team here seems to understand what matters most to families. They've shown they can support residents through different stages of care, including helping people stay comfortable right to the end when that time comes.
How it sits against good practice
Sometimes the right care home is the one where your loved one simply feels at ease.
Worth a visit
Rosclare Residential Home Limited on Ewell Road in Surbiton was assessed in May 2024 and rated Good across all five domains: Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well-led. This is a meaningful improvement on a previous Requires Improvement rating, and it covers a small, 19-bed home specialising in dementia, older adults, and sensory impairment. The registered manager and nominated individual are named in the registration record, which suggests continuity of leadership. The main limitation of this report is that the published findings are a brief summary only, without the specific inspector observations, staff interactions, or resident and family quotes that would allow a fuller picture. Every domain score here reflects the Good ratings rather than detailed verified evidence. Before choosing this home for your parent, visit in person and use the specific questions in the checklist below, particularly around night staffing numbers, dementia training content, one-to-one activities for residents who cannot join groups, and how the team communicates with families when something changes.
