At the end of February, CQC (Care Quality Commission) will be launching an ASC campaign, aimed at people who are choosing a care home for themselves or a loved one.

The campaign aims to raise awareness of CQC, their role in inspecting and regulating care homes and how their inspection reports and ratings can help people make an informed decision when choosing care – making sure it’s right for them.
 
How you can help
 
In previous campaigns case study stories of people’s experiences of care have always made up an important part of the campaign
 
The campaign aims to continuously encourage and enable the voices of people who use services, their families and carers to drive their understanding of the quality of care so people can make better of their information.

The brief for the campaign can be downloaded from below.

A shortlist of homes was produced to support engagement with a number of homes from various areas within the borough. Homes were chosen to be representative (for older people, people with learning disabilities, people using mental health services).
Individual reports were sent to each provider so that they had an opportunity to request any factual inaccuracies be corrected prior to publication.
