Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 10 good, 23 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
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. ?
Borough Care Ltd runs Meadway Court, a residential care home in Stockport with room for 42 residents. CQC registers it to look after older people and people with dementia.
In July 2026, CQC gave it Requires improvement overall, and Requires improvement for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from March 2023. Ratings in Stockport are typically about 3 years old, which makes this one newer than most. Of the 33 standards CQC scored, 23 fell below good. The lowest was “medicines optimisation” (significant shortfalls).
