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. ?
Lime Trees is one of 395 care homes in Essex: a 10-bed residential care home in Harwich, run by J Moor. It is registered to care for people with dementia, people with a physical disability, people with mental health needs, people with a sensory impairment and people with an eating disorder. It is a small home for Essex, where the median is 22 beds.
Its CQC rating, from December 2023, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Its previous rating, in October 2017, was Outstanding, so the home has slipped.
CQC's register shows no registered manager at the moment. None of the 5 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. J Moor runs 4 care homes, and all 3 rated are Good or Outstanding. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in November 2023. That is true of 89% of homes in Essex. 237 other homes in Essex share its tier, “Good”.
