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. ?
The home changed owner in March 2025. Its rating dates from before the change. ?
This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?
Run by Dabrenco Limited, Ann Slade Care Home is a residential care home in Southport, Sefton with 24 registered beds. It is registered to care for older people and people with dementia.
Dabrenco Limited has run the home since March 2025, when it changed owner. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in November 2025. 94% of homes in Sefton also score 5. In Sefton, 79% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
In July 2021, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. That matches its previous rating, from February 2018. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 53% of homes in Sefton. Here is how rating age varies by council.
