Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 13 good, 20 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. ?
Sherwood is one of 76 care homes in Nottingham: a 18-bed nursing home in Nottingham, run by Coveberry Limited. CQC registers it to look after younger adults, people with a learning disability or autism and people with mental health needs.
It is the only Outstanding home among the 7 closest. Coveberry Limited runs 6 care homes, and all 6 rated are Good or Outstanding. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from November 2023. 98% of homes in Nottingham also score 5. Across Nottingham, 78% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England.
CQC rated it Outstanding overall and in all five key questions in October 2026. It was also rated Outstanding at the inspection before, in July 2019. The typical rating in Nottingham is about 3 years old, so this one is fairly recent. CQC scored 33 standards: 20 exceptional and the rest good.
