Home care rated Good or Outstanding in Ipswich
49 home care services in Ipswich are rated Good or Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission. That is 83% of the 59 with a published rating, against 89% across England. 12 of them have at least one of the five key questions rated lower than the overall rating, which the headline hides. The oldest of these ratings was published in September 2017 and 30 are more than five years old, so check when the service was last inspected. 36 home care services in Ipswich have no rating yet, usually because they have not been inspected since registering. That is not a low rating.

Home care rated Good or Outstanding in Ipswich: questions people ask
- How many home care services in Ipswich are rated Good or Outstanding?
- 49 home care services are rated Good or Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission. That is 83% of rated services in Ipswich, against 89% across England.
- Is a Good rating from the CQC enough to go on?
- It is a sound starting point, but look underneath it. The CQC rates five key questions (safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led) and the overall rating can be Good with one of them lower. That applies to 12 of the 49 services on this page. Read the part of the report that matters most to you, and check how old it is.
- What does it mean if a home care service in Ipswich has no rating?
- 36 home care services in Ipswich have not been rated by the Care Quality Commission. A new service waits for its first inspection, so an absent rating is not a mark against it. Ask the service when it registered and whether an inspection is due.
