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. ?
CQC's register shows no registered manager for this home. Every care home must have one. The home may be recruiting, or a new manager may be applying to CQC. ?
Run by Marches Care Limited, The Uplands at Oxon is a nursing home in Shrewsbury, Shropshire with 81 registered beds. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with a physical disability. That is larger than most homes in Shropshire, where the typical home has 29 beds.
60 other homes in Shropshire share its tier, “Good”. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in September 2026. 91% of homes in Shropshire also score 5. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. There is no registered manager on CQC's register right now.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in November 2022. Its previous rating, in July 2020, was Requires improvement, so the home has improved.
