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 January 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. ?
PermaCare Limited runs Mundy House, a residential care home in Basildon, Essex with room for 66 residents. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment. The typical home in Essex has 22 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
In July 2018, 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 June 2016. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 48% of ratings in Essex are as old (how rating age varies by council).
The home changed owner in January 2024. About 0.8 km away, Clayburn Lodge is rated Outstanding. Across Essex, 84% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from October 2026. That is true of 89% of homes in Essex.
