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. ?
Run by Mr & Mrs J T Orley, Wordsley House is a residential care home in Hartlepool with 10 registered beds. Its CQC registration covers older people, younger adults and people with mental health needs. That is smaller than most homes in Hartlepool, where the typical home has 32 beds.
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in September 2026. 100% of homes in Hartlepool also score 5. In Hartlepool, 92% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in April 2020. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in July 2017. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 27% of homes in Hartlepool. Here is how rating age varies by council.
