Birkin Lodge is a nursing home in Tunbridge Wells, run by Country Court Care Homes 2 Limited. It has 38 registered beds and supports older people and people living with dementia.
CQC rated it Good overall in March 2020, and Good in all five key questions. This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. Across Kent, 79% of the 461 rated care homes are Good or Outstanding. The rating is 6 years old. CQC decides when to re-inspect based on risk, so this isn't a mark against the home, but it's worth asking what has changed since.
