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. ?
Covenant Care - The Wheelhouse is in the Good tier ?, with 124 other homes in Somerset.
89% of rated homes here are Good or Outstanding (England: 82%).
Covenant Care - The Wheelhouse is one of 194 care homes in Somerset: a 10-bed residential care home in Wellington, run by Covenant Care Support LLP. CQC registers it to look after older people, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs, people with a sensory impairment and people with an eating disorder. That is smaller than most homes in Somerset, where the typical home has 25 beds.
