Thank you very much for your feedback. We’re grateful for your positive comments around our friendly staff and the light, clean facilities at Weald Heights. With regards to the staffing levels, I would like to assure you that residents’ safety and welfare is our priority at all times and as such we do a full dependency analysis for each resident which is used to plan the care team, in order to ensure that care is safe and appropriate for residents’ needs. However, we do take your concerns seriously and will pass your comments to the home manager. We also wanted to put your mind at ease around hydration. To make sure that all residents are well hydrated we monitor each resident's fluid intake on a daily basis. Tea, coffees and other beverages are offered throughout the day and any concerns are reported and acted upon immediately. Please do contact the home manager or any other members of the senior team at the home if there is anything else we can help with now or in the future.
We’re grateful for your feedback and are delighted with the positive comments for the care and support we provide. I would like to assure you that our levels of staffing are always suitable to meet the needs of all our residents seven days a week, and also overnight, to ensure we’re always providing high levels of both care and activities. To put your mind at ease, the staffing levels at weekends are the same as during the week, although there is less administration staff on duty during the weekend. We do take your concerns and feedback seriously and would like to thank you for taking the time to share your views - we will arrange for a manager at the home to get in touch and discuss this further with you in person
Many thanks for your review, we’re really pleased to hear you think the facilities, food and safety are of an excellent standard. The staffing rota at Weald Heights often runs above the industry average, even though on occasion we do have sickness, however, in these instances we always do everything we can to ensure that it is covered. To put your mind at ease, the staffing levels at weekends are the same as during the week, although there is less administration staff on duty during the weekend. We welcome use of the call bell by all residents, and carer response times to the bell are monitored on a weekly basis to ensure that they are answered in a timely way.
Each day at Weald Heights is tailored to every individual, so mealtimes and personal care happen when the resident wants it to. There’s a cook to order service so every resident has the choice of freshly cooked meals, served when they want them. If your mother’s preference is to have set meal times, please do get in touch and we can do our utmost to plan these in.

I’m a registered nurse by training and have worked in older people’s care for 25 years. Before joining Weald Heights in 2016, I had managed a large care home for ten years. I’ve been at Weald Heights since before it opened its doors. I’m delighted at the way my team and I have made it a home with a first-class reputation.
I believe in setting the standard, rather than following, and we take an innovative, personalised approach to resident care. When residents said they fancied learning a new language, we set up Spanish lessons and joined with a local parent and toddler group so that the generations could learn together. And when a gentleman, who is a keen musician, wanted to visit the Royal Albert Hall for his 90th birthday, we worked with his family to make it happen and to give him an unforgettable day.
I was delighted with our ‘good’ rating from the CQC, which we gained in September 2018. I’m now looking forward to continuing to work with my skilled and passionate team to go one better. Our aim now is to become an ‘outstanding’ provider of great care for older people in Sevenoaks, and across Kent and the South East of England.
