A care home in Barnet has been given a negative score after being inspected.

The Care Quality Commission is in charge of inspecting social care services across England. The organisation judges care providers across various metrics – with the best possible rating being 'outstanding', and the worst 'inadequate'.

The latest batch of ratings from the CQC show a care home, Two Rivers Care Home, was rated as 'inadequate' on October 26. The home was last inspected on September 6.

A service given an 'inadequate' rating will ordinarily be placed in special measures by the CQC.
