Enter & View Report - Speirs House Care Home
About the Enter and View
The Enter and View visit to Speirs House was conducted as part of Healthwatch Kingston’s series of announced Enter and View visits to local care and nursing homes taking place between April 2024 and March 2025. These visits are focused on three specific areas: living environment; residents’ mealtime experiences; and activities provided.
Summary
Overall, Healthwatch Kingston authorised representatives concluded that Speirs House was a well run home with caring staff and strong leadership from the manager. The residents and relatives we spoke to told us that they were happy with their environment and with the care given to them or their loved one by the staff.
The staff also expressed that they liked working at Spiers House. Our visit was from 11.30am – 3.30pm and we were able to observe the lunchtime meal and some activities.
This report has been shared with Speirs House who have had the opportunity to check it for factual accuracy and respond to our recommendations. We have agreed with the management of Speirs House the next steps to be taken in response to outstanding recommendations.
