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. ?
Blackhurst Care Home is an independent 5-bed residential care home in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, registered with CQC under its own name. CQC registers it to look after older people, younger adults, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. The typical home in Shropshire has 29 beds, so this one is on the small side.
The nearest home with a higher rating is Church View (Outstanding), 2.4 km away. In Shropshire, 80% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
Its CQC rating, from June 2023, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. That matches its previous rating, from October 2018. Ratings in Shropshire are typically about 7 years old, which makes this one newer than most.
