Multiple UK Councils Receive 'Good' Ratings for Adult Social Care Services

Several local councils and care homes in the UK have recently received 'Good' ratings from the Care Quality Commission (CQC) for their adult social care services, highlighting their commitment to supporting vulnerable residents. Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council was praised for its strong leadership, partnership work, and efforts to reduce inequalities in care, despite some areas needing improvement in assessing needs and transitions. Coventry's Improving Lives program was noted for integrating services to keep people independent at home, achieving significant cost savings and national award recognition. Attlee Court Care Home in Normanton was commended for its person-centered care and welcoming environment following refurbishment and integration into Trust Care. Calderdale Council was recognized for a person-centered, strength-based approach promoting independence through close collaboration with health and housing partners. Collectively, these assessments emphasize positive outcomes such as timely support, community engagement, and enhanced well-being for residents while acknowledging ongoing areas for development.
