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. ?
Butterfly's Care Home is an independent 9-bed residential care home in Walton On The Naze, Essex, registered with CQC under its own name. CQC registers it to look after younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism and people with mental health needs. The typical home in Essex has 22 beds, so this one is on the small side.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in April 2019. That matches its previous rating, from May 2016. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 48% of ratings in Essex are as old (how rating age varies by council).
