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. ?
Quo Vadis Trust runs Elmwood Lodge, a residential care home in Sidcup, Bexley with room for 10 residents. CQC registers it to look after people with mental health needs. That is smaller than most homes in Bexley, where the typical home has 39 beds.
In July 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from November 2016. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Bexley, 43% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in June 2025. That is true of 95% of homes in Bexley. In Bexley, 75% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). 2 of Quo Vadis Trust’s 2 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating.
