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. ?
Trafalgar Healthcare Limited runs Auburn Mere, a residential care home in Watford, Hertfordshire with room for 37 residents. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment.
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in June 2026. 92% of homes in Hertfordshire also score 5. 121 other homes in Hertfordshire share its tier, “Good”. Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in February 2019. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 53% of homes in Hertfordshire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
