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.
What CQC looks at
Safe: Requires improvement
CQC checks whether people are protected from abuse and avoidable harm. It looks at safeguarding, how risks are managed, staffing levels and training, medicines, and keeping the place clean to stop infections.
Questions you could ask
- How are medicines looked after and given on time?
- How do you decide how many staff are on duty, day and night?
- When something goes wrong, what do you do, and how do you tell families?
Effective: Requires improvement
CQC checks whether care gets good results for people and follows good practice. It looks at how needs are assessed, food and drink, working with GPs and other services, and asking people for their consent.
Questions you could ask
- How do you find out what someone needs before their care starts?
- How do you work with GPs, nurses and other services?
- How do you make sure people get enough to eat and drink?
How often CQC looks again
