Rodwell Farm nursing home is in Row Town, near Addlestone and has been owned by Ernie Graham and Dr Karen Graham since the mid 1990s. Today it provides beds for 46 clients, covering both older people with frailty/confusion and younger people with physical disabilities. The home also offers day care and respite care facilities and employs a staff team of around 60.
Getting Started
During the late 1990s, and in common with many other nursing and care homes, Rodwell Farm found itself faced with ongoing staff turnover, which in turn, added to the business’ cost base.
Home owner Ernie Graham and then, staff nurse, Karen Raggett were keen to find a way to retain staff and to ensure that the home’s employees were equipped with both the skills and confidence to perform well in their jobs.
