CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
An independent nursing home in East Dereham, Norfolk, Sanford House Nursing Home is run by an organisation of the same name. It has 40 beds. CQC registers it to look after people with dementia and younger adults.
Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. 122 other homes in Norfolk share its tier, “Good”. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from July 2026. 89% of homes in Norfolk also score 5.
In October 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in February 2017. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Norfolk, 46% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
