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. ?
Walford Lodge is one of 112 care homes in Shropshire: a 6-bed residential care home in Shrewsbury, run by Condover College Limited. CQC registers it to look after older people, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism and people with a sensory impairment. That is smaller than most homes in Shropshire, where the typical home has 29 beds.
In Shropshire, 80% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Condover College Limited runs 14 care homes, and all 12 rated are Good or Outstanding. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
Its CQC rating, from October 2019, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 53% of ratings in Shropshire are as old (how rating age varies by council).
