Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 28 good, 5 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
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. ?

It is a small home for Bradford, where the median is 32 beds.
Its CQC rating, from October 2026, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Before that, in October 2019, it was rated Requires improvement.
