One in every five care homes in England is judged not good enough by
watchdogs, BBC analysis has found.
Providers say while poor care must be tackled the Care Quality Commission
(CQC) rating system is “inconsistent”.
A poor rating has left some providers unable to get insurance or banking,
which can lead to closures.
The CQC said the “variability” in standards of care across the country was
“a real concern” and vowed to continue to tackle “poor care”.
The Care Quality Commission (CQC) uses four ratings – outstanding, good,
requires improvement or inadequate.
Across England, nearly 3,000 of the country’s 14,975 care homes are
currently rated either inadequate or needing improvement.
In Trafford, 37 of its 86 social care settings are rated either inadequate
or in need of improvement – the highest percentage (43%) of any area of
England.
Portsmouth, Tameside, Barnsley, Isle of Wight, Bradford, Barking and Salford
all have more than a third of providers rated less than good.
West Berkshire has the highest rate of good care homes in England, with just
one of its 62 providers judged inadequate or requiring improvement.
