Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 29 good, 4 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. ?
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. ?
Broughton House and College is in the Good tier ?, with 147 other homes in Lincolnshire.
76% of rated homes here are Good or Outstanding (England: 82%).
Broughton House and College is one of 279 care homes in Lincolnshire: a 5-bed residential care home in Lincoln, run by Cygnet Care Services Limited. Its CQC registration covers older people, younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. The typical home in Lincolnshire has 30 beds, so this one is on the small side.
Village Farm, 6.2 km away, is the closest home rated Outstanding. It is one of 11 homes run by Cygnet Care Services Limited. 8 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. There is no registered manager on CQC's register right now. 147 other homes in Lincolnshire share its tier, “Good”.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in October 2026. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in September 2019. The typical rating in Lincolnshire is about 4 years old, so this one is fairly recent. CQC found some shortfalls in “monitoring and improving outcomes”, one of 4 standards out of 33 scored below good.
