Larchwood Grove is a residential care home in Gravesend, run by Gravesend Independent Living Services Limited. CQC registers it for 10 places and supports older people, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a learning disability or autism.
CQC rated it Good overall in January 2018, 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 8 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.
