The local picture

Choice is wide here: the 25 nearest other care homes are all within 3 miles, 19 of them rated Good or Outstanding, and the closest is York Lodge, under 0.5 miles away.

It is registered for needs that fewer services nearby cover: mental health conditions (8 of the nearest 25).

21 of the 24 nearest rated care homes have a more recent rating than this one.

It sits in Central ward, classed by ONS as urban (nearer to a major town or city), among the 30% most deprived neighbourhoods in England. NHS services here are planned by NHS Surrey and Sussex ICB.

Within about a 10-minute walk there is a GP surgery (7 min), a pharmacy (7 min), a shop (2 min), a park (3 min), a café (1 min) and a bus stop (1 min), which matters for residents who can go out and for visiting family.

What it may cost

We estimate Warwick House at £1,400–£1,710 a week for residential care, based on published prices in the region. Over a year that is roughly £73k–£89k.

Ask how often fees rise and whether they go up if care needs increase.

If savings are under the upper limit (£23,250 in England), West Sussex Council may pay part of the cost after a free care needs assessment.

How long it has been running

Registered in January 2011, it has 15 years on the CQC register.

CQC has published 2 overall ratings for it (2017–2019), starting at Good and staying Good every time.

The rating is 7 years old. CQC decides when to return based on risk, so age alone is not a warning sign; still, ask who the manager is now.

There are 4 CQC reports on file for this address; the newest is from 5 October 2019.
