– there are some services which we can’t rate, while some might be under appeal from the provider. Suspended ratings are being reviewed by us and will be published soon. We think it’s important you have detailed, comprehensive information so that you can decide which care providers to shortlist. This is the latest available inspection report for this service, carried out on 22nd January 2010. It is an annual review prepared by CQC after examining previous reports and information from the provider.
The Home Services Directory on this website provides an opportunity to promote your services. Entries are completely free, and we’re happy to work with you to ensure your service are presented in a way you’re happy with. Our HousingCare PLUS and PREMIUM subscription services offer additional branding, links to your own site, ‘vacancy / availability ads’ and much more. If you have a home to sell, you may be able to use the proceeds to pay the deposit on a new property and take out a ‘lifetime mortgage’ to cover the rest of the cost. If you simply want to move to a more suitable non-retirement home, and need help or advice with this, our EAC Advice service is here to help you. If this service has not had a CQC inspection since it registered with us, our judgement may be based on our assessment of declarations and evidence supplied by the service.

A majority of homes aim to cater for both, but some target only one or the other. Those run by private operators more often focus on lifestyle, with help and care services discretely available to buy if or when required. Both ownership and rental options are commonly available, as well as alternative ways of paying for the services on offer – including part deferring payment until a property is sold.

There is no charge whatsoever to appear in it, and we welcome a photo and descriptive text to enhance the presentation of your home.
