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. ?
Rookhurst Lodge is a 6-bed residential care home in Bexhill On Sea, East Sussex, run by Trustcare Management Limited. CQC registers it to look after younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a learning disability or autism. It is a small home for East Sussex, where the median is 24 beds.
Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in September 2026. 90% of homes in East Sussex also score 5. 167 other homes in East Sussex share its tier, “Good”. Trustcare Management Limited runs 2 care homes, and all 2 rated are Good or Outstanding. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
Its CQC rating, from May 2019, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Its rating before that, in October 2016, was the same. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 35% of homes in East Sussex. Here is how rating age varies by council.
