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. ?
CQC's register shows no registered manager for this home. Every care home must have one. The home may be recruiting, or a new manager may be applying to CQC. ?
Basford is a 6-bed residential care home in Nottingham, run by Heathcotes Care Limited. Its CQC registration covers older people, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. That is smaller than most homes in Nottingham, where the typical home has 17 beds.
In Nottingham, 78% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in August 2024. 98% of homes in Nottingham also score 5. It is one of 53 homes run by Heathcotes Care Limited. 45 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. There is no registered manager on CQC's register right now. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in March 2018. That matches its previous rating, from March 2016. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Nottingham, 33% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
