Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 25 good, 8 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
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. ?
White Hart House is a 6-bed residential care home in Fareham, Hampshire, run by Dolphin Homes Limited. Its CQC registration covers younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Hampshire, where the typical home has 25 beds.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in January 2025. The typical rating in Hampshire is about 4 years old, so this one is fairly recent. CQC found some shortfalls in “responding to people's immediate needs”, one of 8 standards out of 33 scored below good.
None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. Dolphin Homes Limited runs 13 care homes, and all 13 rated are Good or Outstanding. Across Hampshire, 85% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England.
