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 House Nursing Home is one of 50 care homes in Harrow: a 27-bed nursing home in Harrow, run by Primrose House Care Home Limited. 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 mental health needs. The typical home in Harrow has 14 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in April 2020. Its rating before that, in September 2017, was the same. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Harrow, 42% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. Across Harrow, 94% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from April 2026. That is true of 90% of homes in Harrow.
