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. ?
An Caladh House is a 10-bed residential care home in Lincoln, Lincolnshire, run by Kisimul Group Limited. CQC registers it to look after younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Lincolnshire, where the typical home has 30 beds.
Kisimul Group Limited runs 21 care homes, and 18 of the 21 rated are Good or Outstanding. It is the only Outstanding home among the 7 closest. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from March 2025. 95% of homes in Lincolnshire also score 5. In Lincolnshire, 76% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
CQC last rated the home in March 2019, giving it Outstanding overall. Responsive and well-led were also Outstanding. Safe, effective and caring were rated Good. That is up from Good in July 2016. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 36% of homes in Lincolnshire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
