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. ?
Primrose Croft Care Home is one of 132 care homes in Cambridgeshire: a 38-bed residential care home in Cambridge, run by Primrose Healthcare Limited. It is registered to care for older people and people with dementia.
Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in April 2025. 88% of homes in Cambridgeshire also score 5. In Cambridgeshire, 92% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
In November 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in June 2017. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 64% of homes in Cambridgeshire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
