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. ?
An independent nursing home in Dartmouth, Devon, The Fleet is run by an organisation of the same name. It has 79 beds. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, people with a physical disability, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. The typical home in Devon has 25 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
