“The living environment we provide and the way we strive to make the residents feel a true sense of wellbeing is also crucial to providing the best care home setting.”

The 94-bed home, which provides care for older people, including those living with dementia, is among three Runwood Homes services to have been rated Outstanding, along with Crowstone House in Westcliff on Sea and Frank Foster House in Theydon Bois.

The CQC commented: “The service had continued to provide care that was outstanding and had made further improvement within the service that had a positive impact on people’s lives.  Staff cared for people in a kind and compassionate way; and people, relatives and other healthcare professionals remained complimentary of the service.
