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. ?
SENSE - Newton Court is an independent 10-bed residential care home in Peterborough, registered with CQC under its own name. Its CQC registration covers people with a learning disability or autism and people with a sensory impairment. It is a small home for Peterborough, where the median is 30 beds.
Its CQC rating, from December 2017, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in October 2015. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Peterborough, 55% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
