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. ?
Monkscroft Care Centre is in the Outstanding tier ?, with 11 other homes in Gloucestershire.
87% of rated homes here are Good or Outstanding (England: 82%).
Monkscroft Care Centre is one of 194 care homes in Gloucestershire: a 80-bed nursing home in Cheltenham, run by The Orders Of St. John Care Trust. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment. That is larger than most homes in Gloucestershire, where the typical home has 25 beds.
It is the only Outstanding home among the 7 closest. 44 of The Orders Of St. John Care Trust’s 47 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). Across Gloucestershire, 87% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from July 2026. 91% of homes in Gloucestershire also score 5.
CQC last rated the home in July 2018, giving it Outstanding overall. It was Outstanding for caring and responsive as well. For safe, effective and well-led, the rating was Good. Its previous rating, in February 2016, was Good, so the home has improved. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Gloucestershire, 49% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
