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. ?
Arden Court is a 47-bed nursing home in Manchester, Salford, run by Wellington Healthcare (Arden) Ltd. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with a physical disability. That is larger than most homes in Salford, where the typical home has 31 beds.
The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from November 2025. 65% of homes in Salford also score 5. 25 other homes in Salford share its tier, “Good”. It is one of 12 homes run by Wellington Healthcare (Arden) Ltd. 4 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
Its CQC rating, from February 2020, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Before that, in January 2019, it was rated Requires improvement. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 40% of homes in Salford. Here is how rating age varies by council.
