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. ?
Ruckland Court is one of 279 care homes in Lincolnshire: a 64-bed residential care home in Lincoln, run by Country Court Care Homes Limited. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia and younger adults. That is larger than most homes in Lincolnshire, where the typical home has 30 beds.
Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. 7 of Country Court Care Homes Limited’s 7 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from March 2026. 95% of homes in Lincolnshire also score 5. 147 other homes in Lincolnshire share its tier, “Good”.
Its CQC rating, from July 2021, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in October 2018. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 36% of ratings in Lincolnshire are as old (how rating age varies by council).
