Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspectors called by Minster Grange Care Home, in Haxby Road, for unannounced visits last year on Friday, November 17, and Tuesday, November 21.
They gave the service the overall rating of inadequate, meaning it was not deemed safe.
The rating follows news that the care home will close on Friday (January 12).
As The Press reported last month (December), Maria Mallaband Care Group (MMCG), which runs the service, will close the 62-bed home. The building has been sold to a provider of specialist mental healthcare services.
