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. ?
Community Homes of Intensive Care and Education Limited runs Ciderstone House, a residential care home in Swindon with room for 6 residents. CQC registers it to look after younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. The typical home in Swindon has 14 beds, so this one is on the small side.
In Swindon, 89% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in May 2024. 92% of homes in Swindon also score 5.
