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. ?
Run by Barchester Healthcare Homes Limited, Hilton Park Care Centre is a nursing home in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire with 88 registered beds. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with mental health needs. Most homes in Cambridgeshire are smaller: the median there is 35 beds.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in November 2018. Its rating before that, in April 2016, was the same. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 64% of homes in Cambridgeshire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
Across Cambridgeshire, 92% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in April 2026. That is true of 88% of homes in Cambridgeshire.
