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. ?
CQC's register shows no registered manager for this home. Every care home must have one. The home may be recruiting, or a new manager may be applying to CQC. ?
Homelands is one of 485 care homes in Kent: a 6-bed residential care home in Ashford, run by Canterbury Oast Trust. Its CQC registration covers people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Kent, where the typical home has 24 beds.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in May 2018. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in March 2016. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 45% of homes in Kent. Here is how rating age varies by council.
286 other homes in Kent share its tier, “Good”. CQC's register shows no registered manager at the moment. 7 of Canterbury Oast Trust’s 8 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating.
