Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 22 good, 11 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. ?
Nyton House is a 34-bed residential care home in Chichester, West Sussex. The home is its own registered provider. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment.
CQC last rated the home in January 2025, giving it Outstanding overall. It was Outstanding for caring and well-led as well. For safe, effective and responsive, the rating was Good. That is up from Good in April 2018. The typical rating in West Sussex is about 4 years old, so this one is fairly recent. 11 of the 33 standards CQC scored were exceptional, and none fell below good.
None of the 6 nearest homes is rated Outstanding. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in September 2026. That is true of 92% of homes in West Sussex. Across West Sussex, 85% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England.
