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. ?
The home changed owner in May 2026. Its rating dates from before the change. ?
This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?
Swallownest Nursing Home is one of 79 care homes in Rotherham: a 65-bed nursing home in Sheffield, run by WT NB OpCo 1 Limited. CQC registers it to look after older people. That is larger than most homes in Rotherham, where the typical home has 23 beds.
In August 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. That matches its previous rating, from February 2017. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 20% of ratings in Rotherham are as old (how rating age varies by council).
50 other homes in Rotherham share its tier, “Good”. None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. The home changed owner in May 2026. It is one of 25 homes run by WT NB OpCo 1 Limited. 19 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding.
