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. ?
New Fairholme is one of 112 care homes in Shropshire: a 88-bed nursing home in Oswestry, run by Coverage Care Services Limited. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment. The typical home in Shropshire has 29 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
In February 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. Its rating before that, in March 2016, was the same. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 53% of ratings in Shropshire are as old (how rating age varies by council).
10 of Coverage Care Services Limited’s 10 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). None of the 5 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in June 2025. That is true of 91% of homes in Shropshire. 60 other homes in Shropshire share its tier, “Good”.
