Brambling Lodge is a residential care home in Dover, run by Gem Holistic Care Ltd. CQC registers it for 27 places and supports older people, people living with dementia, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment.
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.
