Grades, not an overall rating
Care Inspectorate grades a service on a six-point scale, from Unsatisfactory to Excellent, for each key question that applies to its type of service. It does not give a service one overall grade, so we do not either. Each grade is shown below as Care Inspectorate published it.
The latest graded inspection report was published on 9 September 2025.

Care Inspectorate grades each key question that applies to this type of service from 1 to 6. Each grade is shown as Care Inspectorate published it.
A service keeps its grade for a key question until that question is inspected again, so a grade can be older than the latest report. Where a service has not been inspected under Care Inspectorate’s newer quality frameworks, the nearest earlier grade is shown.

Plain facts about how Care Inspectorate rates and inspects services, as Care Inspectorate describes them. This is not advice and not a rating of ours.
The Care Inspectorate looks at how well the service supports people’s health and wellbeing. This includes being treated with compassion, dignity and respect, getting the most out of life, and good infection control.
The Care Inspectorate looks at whether each person’s plan reflects what they need and want. It also looks at whether family, friends and carers are encouraged to be involved.
The Care Inspectorate looks at the place where care is given. This includes the quality of the building and facilities, whether the setting helps people be independent, and links with the local community. It does not currently assess this for care at home and supported living.
The Care Inspectorate looks at how staff are recruited and whether they have the right knowledge, skills and training. It also looks at whether staffing arrangements are right and staff work well together.
The Care Inspectorate looks at how well the service is led. This includes its values, how leaders check and improve quality, how they work with others, and how staff are led.
An inspection may look at some key questions and not others. A grade stays in place until that key question is inspected again. So the grades for one service can come from different dates.
There is no fixed timetable. The Care Inspectorate decides when to inspect. It uses the information it holds about a service, such as complaints, notifications and past grades, and its view of risk. It can also change a grade between inspections if it finds the grade no longer matches the service.
