Murdoch House is a residential care home in Wokingham, run by Belmont Healthcare (Murdoch) Limited. It is registered for up to 27 residents and supports older people, people living with dementia and younger adults.

CQC rated it Good overall in January 2021, 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 Wokingham, 93% of the 42 rated care homes are Good or Outstanding. The rating is 5 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.
