About Moorland House

Moorland House is a residential care home in Derbyshire, providing care and accommodation for older people who require personal care rather than nursing support. Details from the most recent CQC inspection are set out below.

Moorland House provides care and accommodation for up to 48 older people. At the time of inspection, 44 residents were living there. The home transitioned from a nursing home to a care home in November 2017 and no longer provides nursing care, instead offering personal care as part of its service.

During the inspection, inspectors found the service to be safe. The home maintains its registration to support older people requiring personal care and accommodation in a residential setting.
