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. ?
Portland Care Services Limited runs Oakfield Nursing Home, a nursing home in Preston, Lancashire with room for 57 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 and people with a sensory impairment. The typical home in Lancashire has 28 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
About 6.1 km away, Cornmill Nursing and Residential Care Home is rated Outstanding. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from September 2026. 77% of homes in Lancashire also score 5. In Lancashire, 83% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
Its CQC rating, from November 2019, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. That matches its previous rating, from April 2017. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Lancashire, 47% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
