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. ?
Medlock Court is one of 47 care homes in Oldham: a 32-bed residential care home in Oldham, run by Oldham Care and Support Ltd. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with a physical disability.
Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in January 2026. 76% of homes in Oldham also score 5. 28 other homes in Oldham share its tier, “Good”. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. 2 of Oldham Care and Support Ltd’s 2 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups).
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in May 2018. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in August 2016. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Oldham, 35% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
