About Northhill Care Home
Northhill Care Home is a residential care home in Sheffield, providing personal care for older people, including those living with dementia. Further details from the CQC's most recent inspection are set out below.
Northhill Care Home provides personal care for up to 28 older people, including those living with dementia. At inspection, 22 people were using the service. The home logged and investigated all incidents, though manager oversight of incidents was not always robust, prompting a recommendation for improved monitoring.

The registered manager was responsive to feedback and committed to ensuring the service ran as safely as possible.
