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. ?
This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?
Bridge House is one of 59 care homes in Westmorland and Furness: a 37-bed residential care home in Grange-Over-Sands, run by Westmorland and Furness Council. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment.
In May 2023, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in November 2017.
Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in June 2026.
