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 home changed owner in September 2025. Its rating dates from before the change. ?
This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?
Thornton Lodge Care Home is one of 413 care homes in Lancashire: a 11-bed residential care home in Thornton-Cleveleys, run by Amal Care Services Limited. Its CQC registration covers older people and people with dementia. The typical home in Lancashire has 28 beds, so this one is on the small side.
Its CQC rating, from February 2020, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. That matches its previous rating, from August 2017. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Lancashire, 47% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
It is one of 2 homes run by Amal Care Services Limited. 2 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. Across Lancashire, 83% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in October 2024. That is true of 77% of homes in Lancashire. The home changed owner in September 2025.
