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. ?
This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?
Isle Court Nursing Home is one of 112 care homes in Shropshire: a 82-bed nursing home in Shrewsbury, run by Welford Healthcare MC Ltd. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with a physical disability. That is larger than most homes in Shropshire, where the typical home has 29 beds.
Its CQC rating, from December 2020, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. Before that, in June 2019, it was rated Requires improvement. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 53% of homes in Shropshire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in May 2026. That is true of 91% of homes in Shropshire. In Shropshire, 80% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. Welford Healthcare MC Ltd runs 7 care homes, and all 7 rated are Good or Outstanding.
