Margaret House is a residential care home in Royston, run by Margaret House (Hertfordshire) Limited. It is registered for up to 43 residents and supports older people and people living with dementia.
CQC rated it Good overall in December 2017, 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 Hertfordshire, 77% of the 216 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.
