What inspectors found

Inspected 2021-03-27

  • Is this home safe?

    Not yet rated
    The Safe domain was rated Good at the March 2025 inspection. This indicates inspectors were satisfied that the home managed risks to the people living there at an acceptable level. No specific detail on staffing ratios, falls management, medicines handling, or infection control practice was included in the published summary. Haythorne Place is a large home with 120 beds and a range of specialist services including dementia, mental health, and physical disabilities, which makes staffing adequacy particularly important to verify. The published findings do not confirm night staffing numbers or the level of agency staff use.

  • Is the care effective?

    Not yet rated
    The Effective domain was rated Good at the March 2025 inspection. This covers care planning, staff training, healthcare access, and nutrition. No specific observations, quotes, or examples were included in the published summary. A Good rating in this domain typically means inspectors reviewed care records and training logs and found them broadly satisfactory. Haythorne Place cares for adults with dementia, mental health conditions, and physical disabilities, so the depth and currency of dementia-specific training is particularly relevant.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is this home caring?

    Not yet rated
    The Caring domain was rated Good at the March 2025 inspection. This is the domain most directly concerned with how staff treat the people who live at Haythorne Place, covering dignity, respect, privacy, and compassion. No direct inspector observations, resident quotes, or relative feedback were included in the published summary. A Good rating indicates inspectors did not find concerns in this area, but the absence of specific evidence means families cannot assess the warmth and consistency of daily interactions from the published report alone.
    Verified by inspectorResident testimony recorded
  • Is the home responsive?

    Not yet rated
    The Responsive domain was rated Good at the March 2025 inspection. This covers whether the home responds to individual needs, provides meaningful activities, supports independence, and plans for end of life. No specific detail on the activities programme, individual engagement, or end-of-life care planning was included in the published summary. For a home of 120 beds serving people with dementia, mental health conditions, and physical disabilities, the range and individualisation of activities is particularly important to verify directly.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is the home well-led?

    Not yet rated
    The Well-led domain was rated Requires Improvement at the March 2025 inspection, and this is the reason the overall rating is Requires Improvement rather than Good. The published summary does not specify which aspects of leadership or governance fell short. This is the domain that covers the quality of management, the culture of the home, whether staff feel able to speak up, and whether the home has effective systems for monitoring quality and learning from things that go wrong. The previous overall rating was Good, meaning this represents a decline from the home's prior standard.

    Section 03

    What the evidence base says

    The home supports adults under 65 with physical disabilities and mental health conditions, alongside traditional elderly care. They have experience with dementia at different stages and can manage complex health needs including diabetes. Residents with dementia live in dedicated areas of the home designed for their specific needs. Staff understand the importance of maintaining routines and dignity as conditions progress. 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.

68/ 100

DCC Family Score

Haythorne Place scores in the mid-range, reflecting Good ratings across care, safety, and effectiveness but a Requires Improvement finding in leadership. The leadership concern pulls the overall score down and is the area that warrants closest scrutiny on a visit.

Homes in Yorkshire & Humberside typically score 68–82.

The three-lens summary

Lens 01

What families tell us

Families describe the staff as approachable and willing to stop for a conversation, which helps visitors feel comfortable. People notice residents taking part in activities and outings, with some areas of the home decorated tastefully. The atmosphere feels pleasant when you walk through the door.

Lens 02

What inspectors have recorded

Staff work hard to create a caring environment, though families have noticed they sometimes seem stretched. Communication with relatives happens regularly, particularly during important moments. The home achieved a Good rating from the CQC.

Lens 03

How it sits against good practice

Visiting Haythorne Place will give you a feel for how the different houses work and which might suit your loved one best.

DCC Recommendation

Worth a visit

Haythorne Place, on Shiregreen Lane in Sheffield, was assessed in March 2025 and the report published in May 2025. Inspectors rated the home Good in four of the five domains: Safe, Effective, Caring, and Responsive. The overall rating is Requires Improvement because the Well-led domain fell below the Good threshold, which is the standard required for an overall Good rating. The leadership finding is the central concern for families. A Requires Improvement in Well-led does not mean the home is unsafe, but it does mean inspectors identified governance or management issues significant enough to affect the overall rating. The published summary does not give the specific detail families need to assess the depth of those concerns, so a direct conversation with the registered manager is essential. Ask how long they have been in post, what specific actions they have taken in response to the inspection, and what measurable improvements they can point to since March 2025. Visit during the evening or at a weekend, when management presence is lower, to form your own view of how the home runs when senior leaders are not in the building.

    The Thoughtful Gift That Makes a Difficult Day Easier
