CQC rating

Care homes rated Requires improvement

2,255 care homes in England currently hold a Requires improvement rating: inspectors found the home was not performing as well as it should and told it what to change.

The home was told what to put right. The report matters here: some Requires improvement ratings are about records and management, others are about people being at risk.

What Requires improvement means for your family

The home was told what to put right. The report matters here: some Requires improvement ratings are about records and management, others are about people being at risk.

The rating is a starting point, not the whole story. Every home page here shows the five key-question ratings, the rating history over the years, and the newest inspection report explained in plain English, with the inspectors’ own words quoted. Read that alongside our guide to CQC ratings, then visit.
