INSPECTORS have criticised a failing Rustington care home, saying the service it provided to residents ‘fell well below’ expectations.

An evaluation by independent health regulator, the Care Quality Commission (CQC), found the Darlington Court care home, in The Leas, had failed to meet four out of the five key areas assessed by the watchdog.

An inspection in June showed the home needed to take ‘immediate action’ when it came to staffing, record-keeping, welfare and respect of residents.
