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. ?
Hightown Housing Association Limited runs Old Barn Close, a residential care home in Buckingham, Buckinghamshire with room for 5 residents. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism and people with a sensory impairment. That is smaller than most homes in Buckinghamshire, where the typical home has 30 beds.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in June 2019. That matches its previous rating, from October 2016. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 54% of ratings in Buckinghamshire are as old (how rating age varies by council).
