CQC has published 3 overall ratings for it (2017–2021), starting at Good; it has gone up 0 and down 0 times, and is now Inspected but not rated.

No new overall rating has been published for 6 years. CQC re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating is not a bad sign in itself, but staff and management may have changed.

How it fits locally

Choice is wide here: the 25 nearest other care homes are all within 3 miles, 20 of them rated Good or Outstanding, and the closest is St Margarets Care Home, under 0.5 miles away.

It is registered for needs that fewer services nearby cover: mental health conditions (6 of the nearest 25).

Within about a 10-minute walk there is a GP surgery (2 min), a pharmacy (6 min), a shop (2 min), a park (3 min), a café (2 min), a bus stop (3 min) and a railway station (5 min), which matters for residents who can go out and for visiting family.

Budgeting for this home

We estimate The Malting's Care Home at £1,520–£1,850 a week for nursing care (dementia), based on published prices in the region. Over a year that is roughly £79k–£96k.

NHS-funded nursing care covers part of the nursing cost for eligible residents and is paid directly to the home.
