4. NURSING HOMES (Surrey County Council)
The Surrey County Council is the Authority for registration
but has delegated power of inspection to this authority.
On 1st. January, 1947, there were two registered nursing
homes in the Borough and both were still on the register
at the end of the year.
One, at 20, Grove Crescent, has nine beds for chronic
and senile patients. The other, at 6 Queens Road, is
registered as a Maternity Home with accommodation for
eight patients.
Each Nursing Home was inspected at regular intervals
during the year.
