What the data says about Stoneswood Residential Home
Northern Care Homes Limited runs Stoneswood Residential Home, a residential care home in Oldham with room for 51 residents. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment. That is larger than most homes in Oldham, where the typical home has 32 beds.
In August 2018, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in October 2016. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Oldham, 35% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
