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. ?
Run by RCH Care Homes Limited, Withens Nursing Home is a nursing home in Gravesend, Kent with 33 registered beds. CQC registers it to look after older people.
It is one of 9 homes run by RCH Care Homes Limited. 6 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.

In October 2021, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. Its previous rating, in October 2020, was Requires improvement, so the home has improved. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Kent, 45% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
