The Metropolitan Police said officers were called to the home on Canadian Avenue in Catford in the early hours of Monday morning to reports of an assault.
A woman in her 90s was taken to hospital, but later died.
Fellow care home resident Alexander Rawson, 62, appeared at Bexleyheath Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday charged with murder.
He did not enter a plea and is next due to appear at the Old Bailey on January 7, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said.
