Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 17 good, 16 exceptional. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
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. ?
Hegarty Care is an independent 4-bed residential care home in Nottingham, registered with CQC under its own name. It is registered to care for younger adults, people with a learning disability or autism and people with mental health needs. That is smaller than most homes in Nottingham, where the typical home has 17 beds.
CQC last rated the home in April 2026, giving it Outstanding overall. It was Outstanding for caring, responsive and well-led as well. CQC rated safe and effective as Good. It was also rated Outstanding at the inspection before, in May 2019. The typical rating in Nottingham is about 3 years old, so this one is fairly recent. None of its 33 scored standards was below good, and 16 were exceptional.
Hegarty Care Limited runs 2 care homes, and all 2 rated are Good or Outstanding. 1 of the 6 nearest homes is also Outstanding. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in November 2025. That is true of 98% of homes in Nottingham. Across Nottingham, 78% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England.
