How long it has been running
Vine Living registered with CQC in September 2026, so it is a new service.
So far CQC has published one overall rating: Good, in May 2023.
The rating is 3 years old. CQC decides when to return based on risk, so age alone is not a warning sign; still, ask who the manager is now.
The registered provider has changed since the last rating, so it reflects the old provider; the current one has not been inspected here yet.
