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. ?
CQC's register shows no registered manager for this home. Every care home must have one. The home may be recruiting, or a new manager may be applying to CQC. ?
St Ives Close is a 8-bed residential care home in Tamworth, Staffordshire, run by Royal Mencap Society. CQC registers it to look after people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Staffordshire, where the typical home has 28 beds.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in December 2017. Its rating before that, in January 2016, was the same. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 51% of homes in Staffordshire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
Royal Mencap Society runs 26 care homes, and 25 of the 26 rated are Good or Outstanding. None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. CQC's register shows no registered manager at the moment. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from October 2024. That is true of 85% of homes in Staffordshire. 133 other homes in Staffordshire share its tier, “Good”.
