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. ?
Fountain View is a 6-bed residential care home in Southampton, Hampshire, run by Community Homes of Intensive Care and Education Limited. CQC registers it to look after younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Hampshire, where the typical home has 25 beds.
The current CQC rating is Outstanding, published in May 2018. Responsive and well-led were also Outstanding. Safe, effective and caring were rated Good. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 46% of ratings in Hampshire are as old (how rating age varies by council).
60 of Community Homes of Intensive Care and Education Limited’s 65 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). CQC's register shows no registered manager at the moment. None of the 6 nearest homes is rated Outstanding. 24 other homes in Hampshire share its tier, “Outstanding”. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from April 2025. That is true of 84% of homes in Hampshire.
