RCH Score methodology
How we rank care homes in London
Score 0–10 · evidence dates vary
Published inspection ratings, family feedback, rating history and provider-record context help you compare homes. Evidence dates and coverage vary; this score does not confirm today’s care, fees or vacancies.
inspection inspection rating
40%The official inspection rating — Outstanding, Good, Requires Improvement, or Inadequate. The primary quality signal, but can be up to 4 years old.
Online reviews
30%Average star rating from available family feedback, weighted by volume. Reflects the day-to-day experience of residents and families. Only counted when 10+ reviews exist.
inspection trend
15%Whether the home's rating has been improving, stable, or declining across its last three inspections. An improving trajectory can offset an older rating.
Provider records
15%Dated public provider records, where available. We show useful questions and information gaps, not a credit rating or prediction.
Rankings are calculated from public data only. We do not accept referral fees or paid placements from care homes.
The RCH Score is a decision-support tool, not a definitive ranking. Always visit a home in person and ask for the latest inspection inspection report before making a decision.

Residential care questions in London
How do I compare residential care homes in London?
Start with homes that provide care home places without a registered nursing flag, then compare inspection ratings, inspection freshness, fees, review evidence and financial indicators before arranging visits.
How are residential care homes different from nursing homes in London?
Residential care homes usually focus on accommodation, daily living support and personal care. Nursing homes add registered nursing care, so families should verify whether the person's health needs require nursing before shortlisting.
Does RightCareHome rank residential care homes in London by sponsorship?
No. RightCareHome is funded by families, not care homes. The page uses public evidence such as inspection ratings, costs, review signals and provider records rather than paid placement.
