Sunrise of Bagshot is a ‘care home.’ People in care homes receive accommodation and nursing or personal care as a single package under one contractual agreement. CQC regulates both the premises and the care provided, and both were looked at during this inspection.

Sunrise of Bagshot provides facilities and services for up to 99 older people who require personal or nursing care. The building consists of three floors. The ground and first floor of the building are called the Assisted Living Neighbourhood. The care provided in the Assisted Living Neighbourhood includes minimal support for people up to full nursing care. The second floor of the building is called the Reminiscence Neighbourhood. The Reminiscence Neighbourhood provides care and support to people who live with dementia as their primary care need.

At the last inspection on 19 April 2016 the service was rated ‘Good.’ At this inspection we found the service remained ‘Good.’
