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. ?
The home changed owner in December 2024. Its rating dates from before the change. ?
This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?
Kent House is one of 125 care homes in Buckinghamshire: a 22-bed residential care home in Aylesbury, run by The Disabilities Trust. CQC registers it to look after older people, younger adults and people with a physical disability.
The nearest home with a higher rating is Byron House Care Home (Outstanding), 0.6 km away. It is one of 13 homes run by The Disabilities Trust. 11 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. The Disabilities Trust has run the home since December 2024, when it changed owner. Across Buckinghamshire, 73% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England.
In February 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. Its rating before that, in July 2016, was the same. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Buckinghamshire, 54% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
