The Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspects every health care provider in England on a regular basis. They undertake a highly rigorous examination, looking at five major aspects of care to establish that it is effective, responsive, caring, well-led, and safe.

​

​

In addition, the practice has been rated as Good for people in the following 6 groups:

​
