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. ?
Highfield Cottage is a 2-bed residential care home in Middlesbrough, run by A J Residential Care Ltd. It is registered to care for people with a learning disability or autism. It is a small home for Middlesbrough, where the median is 35 beds.
In December 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from June 2017. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Middlesbrough, 45% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. In Middlesbrough, 95% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
