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. ?
Orion House is one of 306 care homes in Devon: a 7-bed residential care home in Bideford, run by Linton Support Ltd. It is registered to care for younger adults, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. The typical home in Devon has 25 beds, so this one is on the small side.
Across Devon, 90% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in January 2016. 86% of homes in Devon also score 5. Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
In February 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 51% of ratings in Devon are as old (how rating age varies by council).
