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. ?
An independent nursing home in Banbury, Oxfordshire, Godswell Park is run by an organisation of the same name. It has 48 beds. It is registered to care for older people, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment.
