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. ?
Run by Charing Lodge Limited, St Michael's Nursing Home is a nursing home in Margate, Kent with 65 registered beds. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia and people with a learning disability or autism. The typical home in Kent has 24 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
Its CQC rating, from April 2023, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in June 2018.
Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in October 2026. That is true of 90% of homes in Kent. In Kent, 79% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). The nearest home with a higher rating is Avondale House (Outstanding), 0.8 km away.
