CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?
146 Lower Robin Hood Lane is one of 485 care homes in Kent: a 5-bed residential care home in Chatham, run by Choice Support. It is registered to care for younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Kent, where the typical home has 24 beds.
Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. Choice Support runs 21 care homes, and 17 of the 21 rated are Good or Outstanding. Across Kent, 79% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in June 2019. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. That matches its previous rating, from October 2016. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 45% of homes in Kent. Here is how rating age varies by council.
