Understanding this rating

Plain facts about how CQC rates and inspects services, as CQC describes them. This is not advice and not a rating of ours.

This rating is from June 2023. That is more than 2 years ago. A service can change a lot in that time, for better or worse. CQC decides when to inspect again.

What CQC looks at

  • Responsive: Requires improvement

    CQC checks whether care is planned around each person’s needs and wishes. It looks at care plans, joined-up care with other services, clear information, and how feedback and complaints are listened to and acted on.

    Questions you could ask

    • How is the care plan written, and how can family be involved?
    • How often is the care plan reviewed?
    • How can I raise a concern, and what happens next?
  • Well-led: Requires improvement

    CQC checks how well the service is run. It looks at the managers and leaders, the culture, how the service checks and improves its own quality, and whether staff feel able to speak up.

    Questions you could ask

    • Who is the registered manager, and how can families contact them?
    • How do you check the quality of care yourselves?
    • How can staff raise worries, and how are they supported when they do?

Questions you could ask

  • What has changed since the last inspection?

How often CQC looks again

There is no fixed timetable. CQC decides when to look at a service again. It uses the information it holds about the service and how much risk it sees. It may look sooner if it hears of concerns.
