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. ?
Dignus Healthcare Limited runs Elm Road, a residential care home in Walsall with room for 2 residents. It is registered to care for people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and children. The typical home in Walsall has 30 beds, so this one is on the small side.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in June 2021. That matches its previous rating, from July 2019. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Walsall, 16% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
CQC's register shows no registered manager at the moment. Across Walsall, 67% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Dignus Healthcare Limited runs 14 care homes, and 10 of the 12 rated are Good or Outstanding. Lonsdale Midlands Limited - 164 Walker Road, 0.6 km away, is the closest home rated Outstanding.
