Fountains Care Centre is a nursing home in Manchester, run by WCG Fountains Ltd. CQC registers it for 98 places and supports older people, people living with dementia, people with a physical disability, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment.

CQC rated it Good overall in March 2020. It was rated Requires improvement for safe. This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. Across Salford, 80% of the 40 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.
