Care homes given new ratings in Havering


A pair of care homes have been given new scores in Havering in the past month.
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'.

A care home, Havering Court Care Home, was told it 'requires improvement' on January 16. The home was last inspected on November 8.
Having been inspected on December 5, Abbcross Nursing Home – another residential care home – was judged as 'good'. The rating was published on January 30.
The CQC gives organisations four different ratings. The worst is an 'inadequate' rating, which ordinarily results in the organisation being placed in special measures by the CQC. Social care services can also be given a less serious rating of 'requires improvement' when they are not up to standard.
At the other end of the scale, services given 'outstanding' ratings are judged to be performing exceptionally well, and a 'good' rating means the organisation is meeting expectations.
