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. ?
Community Homes of Intensive Care and Education Limited runs Ballards Ash, a residential care home in Wotton Bassett, Wiltshire with room for 10 residents. CQC registers it to look after people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Wiltshire, where the typical home has 21 beds.
The current CQC rating is Requires improvement, published in April 2021. Safe and well-led were also Requires improvement. Effective, caring and responsive were rated Good. Its rating before that, in September 2020, was the same. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 40% of homes in Wiltshire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
