Our environment

• Shottendane Nursing Home is situated on the outskirts of Margate with local shops and bus routes nearby. It has been sensitively created from a Grade II listed manor house set in extensive grounds, to provide an all-purpose modern professionally managed Nursing Home in a relaxed semi-rural setting.

• Our 28 rooms are maintained to a high standard of decor, cleanliness and hygiene, and are fitted with call bells to alert staff to care and emergency needs. Most are single occupancy, but there are 5 shared rooms.
• All rooms have washing facilities, and many include an en-suite toilet.
• There is an integrated fire alarm system with smoke detectors in every room. All staff receive regular fire training.
• Nutritional needs of residents are a priority; help with feeding is provided, and a 'Red Tray' alert system operates where monitoring of food intake is critical.
• A range of communal and individual leisure and therapeutic activities is available.
• Chiropody, hairdressing, dental and optical services are also available (these incur a separate charge).
• Residents and their families are consulted on many aspect of the Home's operation, and direct access to senior management is encouraged. Should the need arise, a rigorous complaints procedure is in place.
• Visiting by family and friends is encouraged, and can generally take place at any time of the day.
• When appropriate we also offer sensitive support to relatives
