Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 28 good, 5 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. ?
Normanton Lodge Care Home is an independent 78-bed residential care home in South Normanton, Derbyshire, registered with CQC under its own name. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia and people with a sensory impairment. That is larger than most homes in Derbyshire, where the typical home has 30 beds.
Its CQC rating, from July 2025, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Before that, in April 2022, it was rated Requires improvement. That is more recent than most ratings in Derbyshire, where the typical rating is about 4 years old. 5 of its 33 scored standards were below good, including “workforce wellbeing and enablement”.
None of the 4 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from January 2026. That is true of 93% of homes in Derbyshire. In Derbyshire, 81% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
