STAGE 4 — RESEARCHING CARE HOMES
Visit homes. Compare them side by side. Choose with confidence.
Most of us will view care homes the way we view houses, impression, atmosphere, the feeling in the corridor. We go home, try to remember what we saw, and make a permanent decision from a blurred memory.
The DCC shortlist gives every home you visit a structured record: the same twelve questions, answered the same way, every time. When you’re ready to choose, pull any two homes side by side and compare them directly. Same criteria, same evidence, your notes and your scores.

Is this home safe?
Is the care effective?
The home was rated Good for effectiveness at its March 2022 inspection. This domain covers training, care planning, healthcare access, and nutrition. The home lists dementia, learning disabilities, mental health conditions, sensory impairment, and substance misuse as specialisms, which implies staff training across multiple complex needs. No specific training records, care plan examples, or healthcare outcomes are described in the published findings.Is this home caring?
The home was rated Good for caring at its March 2022 inspection. This domain covers staff warmth, dignity, respect, and support for independence. No direct observations of staff interactions, no resident or family quotes, and no specific examples of practice are included in the published summary. A Good rating in this domain means inspectors were satisfied with what they observed, but the published text does not tell you what that was.Is the home responsive?
The home was rated Good for responsiveness at its March 2022 inspection. This domain covers activities, individual engagement, and end-of-life planning. With only three beds and a list of specialisms covering dementia, learning disabilities, mental health, and other complex needs, the activity and engagement picture will be highly individual. No activity programme, no examples of individual engagement, and no end-of-life planning detail are described in the published findings.Is the home well-led?
The home was rated Good for well-led at its March 2022 inspection. The registered manager is named in the published report. The home improved from Requires Improvement to Good, which suggests leadership change or significant practice improvement since the previous inspection. No specific examples of governance, staff culture, incident learning, or family communication are described in the published findings. A review conducted in July 2023 found no evidence to change the Good rating.

What the evidence base says
The team at Keevan Lodge works with residents who have sensory impairments, learning disabilities and mental health conditions. They also support people dealing with substance misuse problems, offering care for both younger adults and those over 65. Keevan Lodge accepts residents living with dementia. The home cares for people with varying stages of the condition alongside residents with other complex needs. 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.
DCC Family Score
Keevan Lodge has improved from Requires Improvement to Good across all five inspection domains, which is a meaningful positive step. However, with only three beds and a very brief published report, the evidence behind each rating is thin, and families should ask direct questions on a visit rather than relying on inspection detail alone.
Homes in London typically score 68–82.Worth a visit
Keevan Lodge, at 98 Clive Road, Enfield, was rated Good across all five inspection domains at its last inspection in March 2022, published in July 2022. This represents a genuine improvement from its previous rating of Requires Improvement, and covers safety, effectiveness, caring, responsiveness, and leadership. The registered manager is named in the report, and the home has remained registered and active. The main uncertainty here is the very limited detail in the published findings. With only three beds and a brief inspection summary, there is almost nothing specific recorded about staff interactions, mealtimes, activities, or the physical environment. This is not a concern about the rating itself, but it does mean families cannot rely on the inspection text alone to understand day-to-day life here. A personal visit is essential. Ask to see last week's staffing rota, the activity log for the past month, and the most recent care plan review for a current resident (with appropriate consent). Speak to the manager about how the home has changed since the previous Requires Improvement rating and what specifically prompted that improvement.
