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. ?
Medway Community Healthcare C.I.C runs Darland House, a nursing home in Gillingham, Medway with room for 40 residents. It is registered to care for older people and people with dementia. Most homes in Medway are smaller: the median there is 19 beds.
In Medway, 72% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
Its CQC rating, from June 2018, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. That matches its previous rating, from March 2016. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 42% of homes in Medway. Here is how rating age varies by council.
