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. ?
Caritas Services Limited runs Northenden House, a nursing home in Sale, Trafford with room for 6 residents. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs, people with a sensory impairment and people with an eating disorder. The typical home in Trafford has 24 beds, so this one is on the small side.
Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. 3 of Caritas Services Limited’s 4 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). 32 other homes in Trafford share its tier, “Good”. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in February 2024. 95% of homes in Trafford also score 5.
In May 2023, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. Its previous rating, in May 2022, was Requires improvement, so the home has improved.
