Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many supported housing providers have de-registered from the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in each year since 2009-10, broken down by the latest overall CQC rating.
The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has provided the following response:
The table below shows how many supported living services providers have deactivated in each year since 2009-10, broken down by the latest overall CQC rating where available.
A deactivation does not always indicate a service has closed. It could be caused by a number of factors, including a change in the location’s provider/address/legal entity which requires a new registration. Therefore the following information is not indicative of the true number of closures; the number of true closures will be lower than the numbers reported below.
