RCH Score methodology

How we rank care homes in Wolverhampton

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 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.
