Is this home safe?
Is the care effective?
The effective domain was rated Good at the February 2021 inspection. This domain covers whether staff have the skills and training to meet residents' needs, whether care plans are detailed and kept up to date, and whether people have good access to healthcare including GPs and specialist services. The published summary does not include specific examples of dementia training content, care plan quality, or how the home worked with external health professionals. Food and nutrition also fall under this domain, but no detail is available about mealtimes, dietary choice, or how the home supported people with swallowing difficulties.Is this home caring?
The caring domain was rated Good at the February 2021 inspection. This covers the warmth and respect shown by staff, whether people are treated with dignity, and whether residents feel their independence is supported. A Good rating in caring is the most family-relevant domain finding available here, since staff warmth is the single biggest driver of positive family reviews in our data. However, the published summary provides no specific inspector observations about how staff interacted with residents, no quotes from residents or relatives, and no detail about practices such as using preferred names or responding to distress.Is the home responsive?
The responsive domain was rated Good at the February 2021 inspection. This domain covers whether the home tailors its care to individual needs, whether there is a meaningful and varied activity programme, and whether complaints are handled well. No specific detail about the activity programme is available in the published summary, and there is no information about one-to-one engagement for residents who cannot participate in group activities. The home listed dementia, mental health conditions, physical disabilities, and sensory impairment as specialisms, which means the activity offer needs to be flexible enough to reach people with very different levels of ability.Is the home well-led?
The well-led domain was rated Requires Improvement at the February 2021 inspection. This is the only domain where inspectors found concerns, and it is significant because leadership quality predicts the trajectory of everything else in a care home. The published summary does not specify what the concerns were, whether they related to governance systems, management visibility, staff culture, or the handling of complaints and incidents. The home has since been deregistered and archived as of March 2026, which means it is no longer operating as a registered service.

What the evidence base says
The home welcomes younger adults under 65 as well as older residents, supporting people with physical disabilities, mental health conditions and sensory impairments. Their dementia care draws on specialist training to help residents feel secure and understood. For residents living with dementia, the team focuses on creating a calm, structured environment where people feel safe. They work to understand each person's unique needs and preferences, adapting their approach as conditions change over time. 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
New Tyne scores well on the themes families care about most, particularly staff warmth and compassion, but the Requires Improvement rating in well-led pulls the overall score down and raises genuine questions about oversight and accountability that you should explore before deciding.
Homes in South East typically score 68–82.Worth a visit
New Tyne, a 20-bed residential home in Worthing run by West Sussex County Council, was rated Good overall at its inspection in February 2021, with Good ratings across safe, effective, caring, and responsive domains. The well-led domain was the exception, receiving a Requires Improvement rating, which means inspectors identified concerns about management oversight or governance that were not yet resolved at the time of the inspection. It is important to note that this service has since been deregistered and archived, meaning it is no longer operating as a registered care home. Because the published inspection summary contains very limited specific detail, it is not possible to tell you what inspectors actually observed day to day, whether staff used preferred names, how mealtimes felt, or what activities were on offer. The Requires Improvement in well-led is the single most important finding to understand, and you should ask directly what the concerns were and what actions were taken. However, given that the home is now deregistered and archived as of March 2026, this information is primarily of historical interest. If you are choosing a home for your parent now, this report should inform your questions to other providers rather than guide a placement decision here.
