About

Morven House is a family-run care home in Kenley, Croydon, in England, and is registered for 40 beds. It provides residential, dementia and respite care for older people, and supports residents with physical disabilities and mental health conditions. Residents aged 65 and over with a range of healthcare needs are accepted, and the home says each resident has a dedicated carer and that it does not use agency staff. Residents can take part in quiet pursuits such as reading, knitting and gardening, as well as group activities and social events, and meals are prepared in the home's own kitchen.

The home is set in the countryside, with Kenley railway station a 15-minute walk away and central London less than 40 minutes away by train. Before moving in, each prospective resident completes a pre-assessment, which can be carried out at home or in hospital if needed. Morven House is regulated by the Care Quality Commission, and its current rating is set out on its CQC inspection report.
