Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 25 good, 8 below good. 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. ?
Meadowyrthe is a 41-bed residential care home in Tamworth, Staffordshire, run by Nexxus Trading Services Limited. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, people with a physical disability, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment.
Its CQC rating, from July 2025, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Its previous rating, in November 2022, was Requires improvement, so the home has improved. Ratings in Staffordshire are typically about 5 years old, which makes this one newer than most. Of the 33 standards CQC scored, 8 fell below good.
