Section 02

What inspectors found

Inspected 2018-09-05

  • Is this home safe?

    Good
    The inspection rated this domain Good. Beyond that rating, the published report records no specific findings about staffing levels, medicines management, falls recording, infection control, or how the home responds to safeguarding concerns. The home is small, with 14 beds, which can mean closer staff-to-resident contact, but it can also mean fewer staff on duty at any one time, particularly overnight. No information about agency staff use is published.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is the care effective?

    Good
    The inspection rated this domain Good. The home lists dementia as a specialism, which implies some structured approach to dementia care, but the published report records no detail about training content, care plan quality, GP access arrangements, or how the home manages medicines for people living with dementia. No information about how care plans are reviewed or whether families are involved in that process is available in the published findings.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is this home caring?

    Good
    The inspection rated this domain Good. No specific inspector observations, resident quotes, or relative feedback are recorded in the published report. The Good Caring rating indicates that at the time of inspection, dignity and respect standards were considered adequate, but there is no published description of how staff interact with residents, whether preferred names are used, or how the home responds when a resident becomes distressed.
    Verified by inspectorResident testimony recorded
  • Is the home responsive?

    Good
    The inspection rated this domain Good. The home caters for up to 14 people, which creates the potential for a smaller, more individually tailored environment. However, the published report records no detail about the activities programme, how the home responds to individual preferences, or what provision exists for residents who are unable to join group activities. End-of-life care arrangements are also not described.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is the home well-led?

    Good
    The inspection rated this domain Good. The published record names a registered manager (Miss Christina Janet Robinson) and a nominated individual (Ms Martine Verweij), indicating a defined leadership structure. No further detail about management visibility, staff culture, how concerns are handled, or the home's approach to learning from incidents is recorded in the published findings. The last full inspection took place in August 2020.

    Section 03

    What the evidence base says

    Te Hira specialises in dementia care and supporting adults over 65. The home focuses on providing the consistent, skilled care that older residents need. For those living with dementia, the home's approach centres on maintaining contentment and quality of life. The experienced staff understand how to support residents with dementia in ways that keep them feeling settled and happy. All areas worth probing directly during a visit.

The DCC Verdict

Our editorial view, built from the three lenses: what families tell us, what inspectors record, and how the home sits against good dementia-care practice.

62/ 100

DCC Family Score

Te Hira Care Home Limited holds a Good rating across all five inspection domains, but the published report contains very little specific detail, so scores reflect the rating without the supporting evidence families need to feel confident.

Homes in West Midlands typically score 68–82.

The three-lens summary

Lens 01

What families tell us

Families describe a real sense of contentment in their loved ones who live here. One relative shared how their family member has been extremely happy throughout their years at the home, which speaks volumes about the consistent quality of daily life residents experience.

Lens 02

What inspectors have recorded

The staff team stands out for their competence in delivering care. Family members particularly value how capable the team is, providing the kind of reliable support that helps everyone feel confident about the care being provided.

Lens 03

How it sits against good practice

While the fees are notably higher than typical care homes in the area, families feel the capable care justifies the investment.

DCC Recommendation

Worth a visit

Te Hira Care Home Limited, at 23 Moultrie Road, Rugby, holds a Good rating across all five inspection domains following an inspection in August 2020, with a monitoring review in July 2023 confirming no evidence of deterioration since then. The home is registered to care for up to 14 adults over 65, including people living with dementia, and has a named registered manager and a nominated individual in post. However, the published inspection report contains very little specific detail: there are no recorded inspector observations, no resident or relative quotes, and no data on staffing ratios, food, activities, or environment. A Good rating is genuinely meaningful, but without the supporting evidence, families cannot rely on the published findings alone to understand what daily life here looks like. The most important uncertainty is the age of the evidence. The last full inspection took place in August 2020, now more than four years ago, and a great deal can change in a small home over that period, including staffing, management stability, and occupancy levels. Before visiting, prepare specific questions: how many permanent staff are on each shift, including nights; how often care plans are reviewed and whether families are included; and what individual activity support looks like for a resident who cannot join group sessions. When you visit, trust your own observations of how staff speak to residents in the corridors, whether the home smells clean, and whether the manager is present and knows the residents by name.

    The Thoughtful Gift That Makes a Difficult Day Easier
