Couple of care services in Southwark meeting expectations

A pair of social care services have been found to be 'good'.

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'.

Information from the CQC reveals two services in Southwark have received ratings from the start of December.

Oasis Care and Training Agency (OCTA) was awarded a 'good' rating after an inspection on November 10. The rating was published on December 15.

On December 16, Voyage (DCA) London West was also judged to be 'good'. The service had last been inspected on November 13.

A service is given a 'good' rating when it is judged to be performing well against the CQC's criteria.
