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. ?
Sandy Banks Care Home is a 39-bed nursing home in Leyland, Lancashire, run by Mother Redcaps Care Home Limited. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with mental health needs and people detained under the Mental Health Act.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in April 2021. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in May 2018. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 47% of homes in Lancashire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
