Why has the CQC rated us so highly?
Our exceptional quality of care has earned us an ‘Outstanding’ rating from the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in all five measures in England, which include safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led. We are one of less than 3% of home care providers to receive this rating which gives you peace of mind when placing your trust in us.
Proactive care
We take proactive stapes to prevent hospitalisations. Using urinalysis kits to rule out UTIs, our clients are 2.5x less likely to be hospitalised.
Respecting clients wishes
83% of our clients enabled to pass away peacefully at home in line with their preference, compared to 19% of 75+ population.
Comprehensive care plans
Clients are far less likely to experience hospitalisations due to incidents with our care, and the rate of hospital discharge is increased.
How we achieve this
I had confidence that The Good Care Group would find a good carer match for mum. Unlike some care agencies, The Good Care Group visit a potential client to assess needs and tries hard to find a good match the first time round. We were so lucky that a carer was allocated to mum’s care. She was kind, caring, experienced and had so many interests in common with mum.
