What inspectors found

Inspected 2023-05-05

  • Is this home safe?

    Good
    The inspection rated this domain Good. Beyond the rating itself, the published report does not contain specific detail about how safety is maintained at Claremont House. The home is registered for a wide range of needs, which requires strong medicines management, infection control, and staffing discipline across all shifts. No concerns were raised in the inspection.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is the care effective?

    Good
    The inspection rated this domain Good. The published report does not record specific observations about care plan quality, dementia training content, GP access, medicines management, or food provision. The home is registered as a dementia specialism provider, which requires staff to hold appropriate training and for care plans to reflect individual needs.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is this home caring?

    Good
    The inspection rated this domain Good. The published report does not include direct observations of staff interactions, quotes from residents about how they feel treated, or specific examples of dignity being upheld. A Good rating in Caring is nonetheless a meaningful signal, as inspectors observe interactions directly during visits.
    Verified by inspectorResident testimony recorded
  • Is the home responsive?

    Good
    The inspection rated this domain Good. The published report does not record specific detail about the activities programme, individual engagement for residents who cannot join groups, or how the home responds to changing needs. The home's broad specialism registration, covering dementia, mental health, physical disabilities, and sensory impairments, suggests it aims to be responsive to a wide range of individual needs.
    Verified by inspector

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.

73/ 100

DCC Family Score

Claremont House Care Home received a Good rating across all five inspection domains in March 2023, which is a positive and stable result. However, the published inspection text contains very limited specific detail, so the scores reflect confident evidence of compliance without the richer, concrete examples that would push them higher.

Homes in Yorkshire & Humberside typically score 68–82.

DCC Recommendation

Worth a visit

Claremont House Care Home, on Wingfield Way in Beverley, was rated Good across all five inspection domains following an inspection on 28 March 2023. The home is registered for 75 beds and supports a wide range of needs including dementia, mental health conditions, physical disabilities, and sensory impairments. A named registered manager was in post at the time of inspection, which is a positive indicator of leadership stability. A Good rating across every domain places this home in the upper tier of inspected homes nationally. The main limitation of this report is that the published inspection text contains very little specific detail beyond the ratings and registration information. That means it is not possible to verify things like staff warmth, activity quality, food choice, night staffing ratios, or how dementia care is delivered day to day. Before you make a decision, visit in person, ideally at a mealtime or activity time, and work through the checklist questions below with the manager. Pay particular attention to night staffing numbers for 75 beds and how the home supports residents who cannot join group activities.
