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. ?
Four Rivers Nursing Home is a 40-bed nursing home in Ludlow, Shropshire, run by Shropshire Council. It is registered to care for older people and people with dementia.
Its CQC rating, from May 2019, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Its previous rating, in May 2018, was Requires improvement, so the home has improved. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 53% of ratings in Shropshire are as old (how rating age varies by council).
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in May 2025. That is true of 91% of homes in Shropshire. 60 other homes in Shropshire share its tier, “Good”. It is one of 2 homes run by Shropshire Council. 1 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. About 1.1 km away, Hendra House Residential Home is rated Outstanding.
