About Westwood Care Home

Westwood Care Home brings a sense of warmth and familiarity to residential care in Brighton and Hove, a city known for its vibrant community and coastal charm. Families looking for a caring environment close to the sea will find that the home aims to offer a reassuring, homely atmosphere for those who need support. It can be a big decision choosing the right care for a loved one, and Westwood's team understands how much that choice matters to families.

This residential care home supports up to 29 adults with various physical and personal care needs across two converted houses, which feature a lounge, dining area, and rear garden. At inspection, 16 people were using the service.

Environmental and building risks were not well managed, with hazards and cleaning standards not promptly addressed. While no evidence of people coming to harm was found, medicine management was insufficiently audited and staff competence was not regularly checked. The service lacked adequate information and analysis systems to support safe operations.
