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. ?
Little Ingestre House is one of 268 care homes in Staffordshire: a 15-bed residential care home in Stafford, run by Little Ingestre Care Limited. It is registered to care for younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Staffordshire, where the typical home has 28 beds.
Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 2 (improvement necessary), from September 2025. In Staffordshire, 85% of homes score 5. Across Staffordshire, 78% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in October 2019. That matches its previous rating, from March 2017. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Staffordshire, 51% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
