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. ?
The Old Vicarage is in the Good tier ?, with 36 other homes in Westmorland and Furness.
89% of rated homes here are Good or Outstanding (England: 82%).
The Old Vicarage is a 19-bed residential care home in Grange Over Sands, Westmorland and Furness, run by Mr Kamal Dawood Siddiqi. CQC registers it to look after older people and people with dementia.
In September 2018, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Westmorland and Furness, 53% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
