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. ?
Winchester House is one of 485 care homes in Kent: a 12-bed residential care home in Sheerness, run by Achieve Together Limited. CQC registers it to look after younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Kent, where the typical home has 24 beds.
The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from February 2026. 90% of homes in Kent also score 5. 90 other homes in Kent share its tier, “Requires improvement”. It is one of 139 homes run by Achieve Together Limited. 115 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. The nearest home with a higher rating is Barton Court (Good), 0.2 km away.
In April 2022, CQC gave it Requires improvement overall, and Requires improvement for each of the five key questions too. Its previous rating, in December 2019, was Good, so the home has slipped.
