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. ?
The home changed owner in November 2025. Its rating dates from before the change. ?
This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?
An independent residential care home in Herne Bay, Kent, Broomfield Lodge is run by an organisation of the same name. It has 24 beds. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia and younger adults.
The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from October 2026. 90% of homes in Kent also score 5. 286 other homes in Kent share its tier, “Good”. Broomfield Lodge Ltd has run the home since November 2025, when it changed owner. Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in June 2021. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. Before that, in January 2020, it was rated Requires improvement. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 45% of homes in Kent. Here is how rating age varies by council.
