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. ?
Russell Court Nursing Home is a 40-bed nursing home in Longfield, Kent. The home is its own registered provider. It is registered to care for older people and people with a physical disability. Most homes in Kent are smaller: the median there is 24 beds.
The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from December 2025. 90% of homes in Kent also score 5. 286 other homes in Kent share its tier, “Good”. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
In June 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. Its rating before that, in October 2016, was the same. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 45% of ratings in Kent are as old (how rating age varies by council).
