Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many inspections of supported housing providers have been carried out by the Care Quality Commission in each year since 2009-10, and how many of those inspections resulted in an overall rating of (a) good, (b) inadequate and (c) requires improvement.

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has provided the following response:

The following table shows the number of supported living service inspections carried out by the CQC in each year since 2009-10:

Notes:

1. Data includes inspections undertaken under the old approach (compliance/noncompliance) and the new approach (ratings). Also, data includes inspections not yet published.

2. This includes both comprehensive and focussed inspections. Not all inspection will have resulted in a rating.

As the inspections under the CQC’s old approach will not have resulted in a rating, the CQC is unable to give data on this for inspections pre-2014.

Ratings of supported living services locations:

Note:

1. Some locations have had more than one published rating over the period with different outcomes and these locations are counted separately in each row/column. However, the totals shown are a unique count of these locations. This data also includes locations that are no longer active.
