What inspectors found

  • Is this home safe?

    Not yet rated
    The September 2025 inspection rated the Safe domain as Good. No specific concerns about safety, medicines management, staffing levels, or infection control were recorded in the published report text. The home supports 33 residents across a broad specialism range including dementia, mental health conditions, and physical disabilities, which means safe care requires strong processes for each group. No detail about night staffing ratios or agency staff usage was published.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is the care effective?

    Not yet rated
    The Effective domain was rated Good at the September 2025 inspection. No specific findings about care plan quality, GP access, dementia training content, or nutritional standards were published in the report text. The home lists dementia as a specialism alongside mental health conditions, physical disabilities, and sensory impairments, which requires staff to hold a range of relevant knowledge and skills. No detail about how frequently care plans are reviewed or whether families are included in that process was available.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is this home caring?

    Not yet rated
    The Caring domain was rated Good at the September 2025 inspection. No specific observations about staff warmth, use of preferred names, unhurried interactions, or response to distress were published in the report text. No resident or relative quotes were recorded in the available report. The home serves a diverse group including people with dementia, mental health conditions, and sensory impairments, where person-led care requires staff to adapt their communication style to each individual.

  • Is the home responsive?

    Not yet rated
    The Responsive domain was rated Good at the September 2025 inspection. No specific detail about the activities programme, one-to-one engagement, or how individual preferences are accommodated in daily life was published in the report text. The home supports people with a wide range of needs including dementia and sensory impairments, where responsiveness requires tailored, flexible approaches rather than a standard group activity timetable. No information about end-of-life care planning was available.
    Verified by inspector
  • Is the home well-led?

    Not yet rated
    The Well-led domain was rated Good at the September 2025 inspection. Mrs Angela Lynn Johnson is named as the registered manager and Mr Nicholas Weaver as the nominated individual. No specific detail about the manager's tenure, visibility on the floor, staff culture, or governance processes was published in the available report text. This is the home's first full inspection since registration, so there is no prior rating to compare against.

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

Weavers Care Home was rated Good across all five domains at its September 2025 inspection, which is a positive baseline. However, the published report text contains very limited specific detail, so scores reflect the Good rating rather than rich, verified evidence of what daily life looks like for your parent.

Homes in West Midlands typically score 68–82.

The three-lens summary

Lens 01

What families tell us

People describe staff who actively involve residents in daily life, making sure everyone has opportunities to participate. The team's proactive approach to inclusion helps create an atmosphere where residents feel genuinely engaged.

Lens 02

What inspectors have recorded

The home runs with good organisation, from coordinating day trips to managing daily routines. Staff conduct reflects professionalism and genuine care in their interactions with residents.

Lens 03

How it sits against good practice

Sometimes the right care home is one where coordination and inclusion just work well together.

DCC Recommendation

Worth a visit

Weavers Care Home at 66-68 Coventry CV1 4BP was assessed in September 2025 and rated Good across all five domains, with the report published in December 2025. This is the home's first full inspection since registration, and the Good rating across every domain is a solid starting point for a 33-bed home supporting people with dementia, mental health conditions, physical disabilities, and sensory impairments. Mrs Angela Lynn Johnson is in post as registered manager, which provides basic governance continuity. The main limitation here is that the published inspection text contains very little specific detail about what daily life looks like for your parent. A Good rating tells you inspectors found no significant concerns, but it does not tell you whether staff use your mum's preferred name, whether the food is genuinely appetising, or whether there is meaningful activity on a quiet Tuesday afternoon. Every item on the evidence checklist falls into the "not assessed" category because the report simply does not cover it. Before making a decision, visit in person, ideally at a mealtime and on an unannounced basis if permitted, and ask the manager directly about night staffing ratios, agency use, dementia training content, and how families are kept informed.
