Sancroft Hall Care Home in Croydon has been chosen by residents and their families as one of the Top 20 care homes in London.
There are 1,307 care homes in London with the top 20 receiving an award from the UK’s leading reviews guide to care homes, carehome.co.uk.
The award is based on reviews of the care home written by their residents, as well as their friends and relatives.
Amanda Hopkins, reviews manager of carehome.co.uk, said:
“We now have over 200,000 reviews of care homes on carehome.co.uk so we are able to give people a real insight into what a care home and its staff are like. Our reviews show the quality of their care, activities and nutrition as well as if the care home is value for money and the standard of their facilities.
“Reviews of Sancroft Hall Care Home show they provide a high standard of care, and we would like to congratulate them on being a Top 20 care home in London. It is such a big achievement to be named as a top-rated care home by the residents who actually receive the care as well as their family and friends.
