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. ?
Cornwallis Court is a 58-bed nursing home in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, run by The Royal Masonic Benevolent Institution Care Company. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with a physical disability. That is larger than most homes in Suffolk, where the typical home has 36 beds.
It is one of 14 homes run by The Royal Masonic Benevolent Institution Care Company. 14 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. It is the only Outstanding home among the 7 closest. In Suffolk, 81% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
The current CQC rating is Outstanding, published in August 2023. Responsive and well-led were also Outstanding. CQC rated safe, effective and caring as Good. Before that, in March 2018, it was rated Good.
