The 144 with grades from Care Inspectorate, counted by their lowest grade across the key questions graded. Care Inspectorate gives no overall grade; the lowest grade is a figure it publishes itself. Grades are in Care Inspectorate’s own words, and we never turn them into a score of our own.
A service with no grades may be new, or Care Inspectorate may not have graded it yet. What the ratings mean.
