What inspectors found

Inspected 2022-10-01

  • Is this home safe?

    Good
    The Safe domain was rated Good at the September 2022 inspection. The published summary does not describe specific observations about staffing levels, medicines management, falls, or infection control. The home supports five people with a notably varied range of needs including dementia, learning disabilities, physical disabilities, and sensory impairment. No concerns were raised that would suggest immediate safety issues. A monitoring review in July 2023 did not prompt a reassessment of the rating.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is the care effective?

    Good
    The Effective domain was rated Good at the September 2022 inspection. Dementia is listed as a named specialism, which implies that staff training in this area was considered adequate by inspectors. No specific detail about care plan content, GP access, medication management, or food quality is included in the published text. The Good rating in this domain covers training, care planning, healthcare access, and nutrition.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is this home caring?

    Good
    The Caring domain was rated Good at the September 2022 inspection. The published text does not include any direct quotes from residents, relatives, or staff, and no specific inspector observations about staff interactions are described. The Good rating implies that inspectors were satisfied with the warmth and respect shown to residents during the visit. No concerns about dignity or privacy were raised.

  • Is the home responsive?

    Good
    The Responsive domain was rated Good at the September 2022 inspection. The home supports adults across a wide age range with dementia, learning disabilities, physical disabilities, and sensory impairment, which means individual responsiveness is particularly important given the diversity of needs. No specific detail about activities, individual engagement, end-of-life planning, or how complaints are handled is included in the published text.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is the home well-led?

    Good
    The Well-led domain was rated Good at the September 2022 inspection. A Nominated Individual, Mrs Susan Hall, is recorded for the service, indicating a named person with formal accountability. The home is operated by United Response, a national charitable provider, which suggests an organisational governance structure sits behind the local management. No detail about the day-to-day manager, staff culture, or how the home acts on feedback is included in the published text.

    Section 03

    What the evidence base says

    The team here supports residents with various needs — from learning and physical disabilities to sensory impairments and dementia care. They work with adults across different age groups, creating an environment where younger and older residents can thrive together. For residents living with dementia, the home provides specialist care alongside support for those with other complex needs. This mixed approach means people receive individualised support within a diverse community. 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.

72/ 100

DCC Family Score

Every domain was rated Good at the September 2022 inspection, which is a positive baseline for a small five-bed home. However, the published report contains very little specific detail, so scores reflect a solid but unverified picture rather than strong direct evidence.

Homes in London typically score 68–82.
DCC Recommendation

Worth a visit

36 Harvey Road, Hounslow, operated by United Response, was rated Good across all five inspection domains following an inspection in September 2022, with findings published in October 2022. This is a very small residential home with five beds, supporting adults with dementia, learning disabilities, physical disabilities, and sensory impairment across a wide age range. A Good rating across every domain is encouraging, and a subsequent monitoring review in July 2023 found no evidence to reassess that rating downward. The main limitation of this report is that the published inspection text contains almost no specific detail about what inspectors actually observed, heard from residents, or found in records. Every score in this analysis reflects the rating itself rather than direct evidence of what daily life looks like here. Before you make a decision, visit in person, ask to meet the manager, observe how staff interact with the people who live here during an unscheduled part of the day, and ask concrete questions about night staffing, agency cover, and how the home keeps families informed. A Good rating is a reasonable starting point, but a five-bed home with this range of complex needs deserves close personal scrutiny.

    The Thoughtful Gift That Makes a Difficult Day Easier
