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. ?
Apple Orchard is one of 194 care homes in Gloucestershire: a 10-bed residential care home in Newnham, run by Mr and Mrs T A Mills. CQC registers it to look after people with a learning disability or autism. The typical home in Gloucestershire has 25 beds, so this one is on the small side.
Its CQC rating, from March 2019, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. That matches its previous rating, from September 2017. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Gloucestershire, 49% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
2 of Mr and Mrs T A Mills’s 2 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. 117 other homes in Gloucestershire share its tier, “Good”.
