About Limetrees

Limetrees, in Shropshire, is a residential care home providing accommodation and personal or nursing care for up to 66 people aged 65 and over, including those living with dementia. At the time of the CQC's assessment, 36 people were living at the home, which is rated Requires Improvement overall.

Inspectors found inconsistent risk management, with fire safety concerns and hazardous items left accessible, alongside gaps in medicines records and incomplete care plans, particularly around mental capacity. Staff were found to be friendly and respectful, and most residents and relatives praised their kindness, though some described delays in care and a task-focused approach rather than person-centred support.
