Choosing a care home in Canterbury

Compare the overall CQC rating with the five individual inspection questions. Shortlist homes that support the right care needs, then ask about staffing, fees, vacancies and visiting before arranging a tour.

Use ratings carefully

Ratings reflect evidence available at inspection time. Read the full CQC report and check for later updates rather than choosing from the overall badge alone.
