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 Lothlorien Community Limited, Laburnum House is a residential care home in Folkestone, Kent with 6 registered beds. It is registered to care for older people, younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Kent, where the typical home has 24 beds.
Across Kent, 79% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. 6 of Lothlorien Community Limited’s 7 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
Its CQC rating, from May 2019, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in October 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.
