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
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?
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.
