Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent estimate her Department has made of the number of residential care homes that have closed in Stretford and Urmston constituency since January 2020.
Since January 2020, four care homes in Stretford and Urmston have been ‘deactivated’. The Care Quality Commission records care homes which have closed as ‘deactivated’. These locations exclude care homes where the provider continues to operate under a new, separate registration, which may be due to a legal entity change or a change in the provider.
