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 Hawthorns Aldridge is a 76-bed residential care home in Walsall, run by Avery Homes Nuneaton Limited. CQC registers it to look after older people and younger adults. That is larger than most homes in Walsall, where the typical home has 30 beds.
In February 2020, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from April 2017. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 16% of ratings in Walsall are as old (how rating age varies by council).
None of the 5 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. Avery Homes Nuneaton Limited runs 2 care homes, and all 2 rated are Good or Outstanding. 26 other homes in Walsall share its tier, “Good”. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in September 2026. That is true of 74% of homes in Walsall.
