About Chestfield House
Chestfield House is a nursing care home in Kent, offering older people a place where they can feel genuinely at home. The team there understands how much it means to find the right setting for someone you love, and that care and consideration runs through everything they do. For families beginning that search, it can be a comfort to know that Chestfield House is part of a local community where residents are known as individuals, not just as residents.
Chestfield House provides personal and nursing care to up to 32 older people, some living with dementia. At inspection, 27 residents were living in one large adapted building.
Residents felt safe and reported that staff treated them with kindness and respect. However, potential risks to health and welfare had not been consistently assessed, and staff lacked clear guidance on how to mitigate these risks. Medicines management showed gaps, with inaccurate records identified.
While staff recruitment followed safe procedures, improvements were needed in documentation such as references and checks.
