About Birdscroft Nursing Home

Birdscroft Nursing Home provides 24-hour nursing care for older people, younger adults and people with learning disabilities. Its wider specialist care approach supports residents with dementia, neurological conditions, cancer and palliative needs, with care plans developed around individual health requirements and preferences.

Before admission, the home carries out a comprehensive assessment with the resident and, where appropriate, family or representatives. Each resident is assigned a named nurse to oversee care and treatment, while key workers help coordinate the care plan. Medication support follows clinical procedures and NICE guidance. Residents receive a dedicated named nurse who evaluates their care and treatment plan.

How much does Birdscroft Nursing Home cost?

As a guide, Surrey council paid on average £1,004 a week for a nursing care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £1,102 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
