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. ?
Sparrowfields is a 6-bed residential care home in Birmingham, run by Shaw Healthcare (Specialist Services) Limited. It is registered to care for people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Birmingham, where the typical home has 16 beds.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in August 2018. Its previous rating, in May 2017, was Requires improvement, so the home has improved. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Birmingham, 60% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
