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. ?
An independent nursing home in Swindon, Ridgeway Rise is run by an organisation of the same name. It has 73 beds. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. That is larger than most homes in Swindon, where the typical home has 14 beds.
Its CQC rating, from January 2020, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. That is up from Requires improvement in July 2019. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 24% of ratings in Swindon are as old (how rating age varies by council).
27 other homes in Swindon share its tier, “Good”. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in November 2025. That is true of 92% of homes in Swindon. About 2.0 km away, Orchid Care Home is rated Outstanding.
