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. ?
Voyage 1 Limited runs 26 St Barnabas Road, a residential care home in Reading with room for 6 residents. CQC registers it to look after older people, younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. The typical home in Reading has 12 beds, so this one is on the small side.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in October 2019. Its rating before that, in March 2017, was the same. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 66% of homes in Reading. Here is how rating age varies by council.
In Reading, 76% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from September 2026. That is true of 77% of homes in Reading. St Lukes and The Oaks Care Home, 0.7 km away, is the closest home rated Outstanding. It is one of 241 homes run by Voyage 1 Limited. 217 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding.
