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 Consensus Support Services Limited, Kingston House is a residential care home in Leigh On Sea, Southend-on-Sea with 9 registered beds.
