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 Effective domain was rated Good at the May 2021 inspection. The home holds a dementia specialism, which requires staff to have relevant training in place. The published summary does not include specific detail on care plan quality, review frequency, GP access arrangements, or the content of dementia training. No record reviews or specific observations are described in the available text.Is this home caring?
The Caring domain was rated Good at the May 2021 inspection. This domain covers staff warmth, dignity, respect, and whether your parent is treated as an individual. The published summary does not include inspector observations of staff interactions, resident quotes, or examples of how the home respects privacy and preferred names. No specific detail is available in the published text.Is the home responsive?
The Responsive domain was rated Good at the May 2021 inspection. This domain covers whether your parent would have a meaningful life at the home: activities, individual engagement, and end-of-life care. The published summary contains no specific detail on the activities programme, one-to-one engagement for residents who cannot join groups, or how the home supports people in the later stages of dementia.Is the home well-led?
The Well-Led domain was rated Good at the May 2021 inspection, improving from Requires Improvement. A named registered manager and a nominated individual are both on record with the regulator. The published summary does not describe the manager's tenure, how the culture is maintained, how staff are supported to raise concerns, or what governance systems are in place. The improvement from the previous rating suggests problems were identified and addressed, but no detail on what those problems were is available in the published text.

What the evidence base says
The New Grange specialises in dementia care. The home's approach to dementia focuses on maintaining dignity while providing skilled support. Staff show they understand how to work with residents who have dementia, adapting their care to each person's needs and abilities. 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
The home improved from Requires Improvement to Good across all five domains, which is a meaningful positive trend. However, the published inspection text contains very little specific detail, so most scores reflect the rating grade rather than direct observations or testimony.
Homes in South East typically score 68–82.The three-lens summary

It's worth arranging a visit to see how The New Grange balances professional care with genuine warmth.
Worth a visit
The New Grange Care Home Limited, at 10-16 Homefield Road in Worthing, was rated Good across all five inspection domains at its last inspection in May 2021. Importantly, this represented an improvement from a previous Requires Improvement rating, which is a positive sign that the home identified problems and acted on them. A named registered manager was in post, and the home has a declared specialism in dementia care. The main limitation of this report is that the published inspection summary contains very little specific detail: no direct observations, no staff or resident quotes, and no data on staffing ratios, activities, or food. A Good rating tells you the home met the required standard at one point in time, but it does not tell you what day-to-day life feels like for your parent now. The inspection was conducted in May 2021, which means the findings are over three years old. Before making a decision, visit the home at a mealtime if possible, ask to see the actual staffing rota for the past week (counting permanent versus agency staff on nights), and ask how care plans are reviewed and whether families are included in that process.
