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. ?
CQC's register shows no registered manager for this home. Every care home must have one. The home may be recruiting, or a new manager may be applying to CQC. ?
Run by EL Marsh Care Home Ltd, Barnford View is a residential care home in Oldbury, Sandwell with 4 registered beds. Its CQC registration covers older people, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs, people with a sensory impairment and children. The typical home in Sandwell has 12 beds, so this one is on the small side.
Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. EL Marsh Care Home Ltd runs 2 care homes, and all 2 rated are Good or Outstanding. There is no registered manager on CQC's register right now. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in April 2023. 95% of homes in Sandwell also score 5. 41 other homes in Sandwell share its tier, “Good”.
In February 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from February 2016. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Sandwell, 63% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
