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. ?
Woodlands is a 40-bed residential care home in Fleet, Hampshire. The home is its own registered provider. It is registered to care for older people and people with dementia. That is larger than most homes in Hampshire, where the typical home has 25 beds.
CQC last rated the home in August 2019, giving it Outstanding overall. Caring and well-led were also Outstanding. Safe, effective and responsive were rated Good. It was also rated Outstanding at the inspection before, in November 2016. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 46% of homes in Hampshire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
