St Johns Care Home food hygiene rating
Caring Premises · Scottish Borders
St Johns Care Home passed its most recent food hygiene inspection. Scotland's scheme does not award star ratings, a pass means the care premises met the legal standard on the day it was inspected.

The rating dates from 3 June 2025, 13 months ago. Councils typically re-inspect higher-risk businesses every six months to two years, with well-run, low-risk places visited least often, so this is a normal gap.
