Amended Policy on Placements in Care Homes

The Care Quality Commission has abolished the star rating system for Care Homes.  In future judgements as to whether a care home is of suitable quality must be made on consideration of inspection reports and other information to hand.  The Amended Policy replaces the 0 rating Policy of November 2009 and sets out the criteria on which judgements on whether placements should be suspended will be made by officers.
