What inspectors found

Inspected 2019-08-30

  • Is this home safe?

    Not yet rated
    The home was rated Good for safety at the December 2023 inspection, an improvement from a previous Requires Improvement rating. The published report does not include specific observations about staffing numbers, falls management, medicines handling, or infection control. The registration confirms the home provides nursing care, meaning qualified nurses should be present. No specific safety incidents or concerns are described in the available report text.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is the care effective?

    Not yet rated
    The home was rated Good for Effective at the December 2023 inspection. The published report does not describe the content of care plans, the frequency of GP access, dementia training programmes, or food quality. The home is registered as a nursing home, which requires qualified nurses to oversee clinical effectiveness. No specific examples of effective practice are recorded in the available text.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is this home caring?

    Not yet rated
    The home was rated Good for Caring at the December 2023 inspection. The published report contains no recorded observations of staff interactions, no quotes from residents or relatives, and no specific examples of dignity or compassion in practice. The rating alone indicates that inspectors were satisfied with the standard of care they observed.
    Verified by inspectorResident testimony recorded
  • Is the home responsive?

    Not yet rated
    The home was rated Good for Responsive at the December 2023 inspection. The published report does not describe the activities programme, how the home responds to individual preferences, or how end-of-life care is planned and delivered. The home is registered to care for people with dementia, which implies an expectation of tailored, person-centred responses. No specific examples are recorded in the available text.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is the home well-led?

    Not yet rated
    The home was rated Good for Well-led at the December 2023 inspection, improving from a previous Requires Improvement. The registered manager is named as Mr Biju George, and the nominated individual is Mr Yasheen Rajan. The published report does not describe management culture, staff morale, governance systems, or how the home handles complaints and incidents. The improvement in rating suggests inspectors found progress under current leadership.

    Section 03

    What the evidence base says

    The home provides nursing care for adults over 65, with particular expertise in dementia care. They also support younger adults who need nursing care. The team has experience supporting people through different stages of dementia, including when behaviour becomes challenging. Families describe staff who understand how to adapt their approach as the condition progresses, providing both the medical care and the patience that's needed. 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.

72/ 100

DCC Family Score

Warrengate Nursing Home scores 72 out of 100. The home improved from Requires Improvement to Good across all five inspection domains, which is a meaningful step forward, but the published inspection report contains very little specific detail, so most scores reflect that positive direction rather than rich, verified evidence.

Homes in South East typically score 68–82.

The three-lens summary

Lens 01

What families tell us

Families talk about staff who treat everyone with respect — residents and visitors alike. They mention how quickly staff respond when help is needed, and how they take time to understand what works best for each person. Regular activities and entertainment give structure to the days, and families say they're always welcome to join in.

Lens 02

What inspectors have recorded

Staff here work with residents whose needs might be too complex for standard care homes, including those with advanced dementia or challenging behaviours. Families appreciate how the team adapts as conditions progress, providing the specialist nursing input that's needed while maintaining that personal touch.

Lens 03

How it sits against good practice

If you're looking for somewhere in Tadworth that can handle complex nursing needs while still feeling personal and caring, it might be worth arranging a visit to see if Warrengate could work for your family.

DCC Recommendation

Worth a visit

Warrengate Nursing Home, at 2 The Warren in Tadworth, was rated Good at its most recent inspection in December 2023, with the report published in February 2024. Importantly, this represents a step up from a previous rating of Requires Improvement, meaning inspectors found meaningful progress across all five domains: Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well-led. The home is a 40-bed nursing home registered to care for people living with dementia, adults over 65, and adults under 65, with qualified nursing staff on site. The main uncertainty here is that the published inspection report contains very little specific detail. There are no recorded observations of staff behaviour, no resident or family quotes, and no description of the daily life your parent would experience. A Good rating following an improvement is genuinely positive, but you should not rely on it alone. On your visit, ask to see last week's actual staffing rota (counting permanent versus agency names, especially on nights), ask how the team approaches dementia-specific care, and spend time in a communal area watching how staff interact with the people who live there. The checklist above identifies 21 areas where the inspection offers no evidence, and those are the questions to bring with you.

    The Thoughtful Gift That Makes a Difficult Day Easier

    The things that make the greatest difference to someone living with dementia are rarely the most obvious ones.
