Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 30 good, 3 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
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. ?
Blair House is one of 279 care homes in Lincolnshire: a 27-bed nursing home in Lincoln, run by Parkcare Homes (No.2) Limited. It is registered to care for older people, younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism.
75 of Parkcare Homes (No.2) Limited’s 87 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). The nearest home with a higher rating is Orchard Lodge (Outstanding), 8.5 km away. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in July 2025. 95% of homes in Lincolnshire also score 5. Across Lincolnshire, 76% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England.
In March 2026, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from February 2018. Ratings in Lincolnshire are typically about 4 years old, which makes this one newer than most. CQC found some shortfalls in “assessing needs”, one of 3 standards out of 33 scored below good.
