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 June 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. ?
Waythrough runs Longview House, a residential care home in Liverpool, Knowsley with room for 17 residents. CQC registers it to look after older people, younger adults and people with mental health needs. The typical home in Knowsley has 40 beds, so this one is on the small side.
In April 2023, 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. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in July 2018.
