CARE
Private care homes shut down for safety

Research from Oxford University highlights that 98% of adult care homes closed by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) between 2011 and 2023 were privately operated. Similarly, over 90% of children's homes shut down by Ofsted during the same period were also for-profit.

Anders Bach Mortensen, who led the study, explained: "The strongest regulatory measure available to the CQC and Ofsted is far more likely in for-profit provision." The report indicates that the trend of outsourcing care has resulted in a disproportionate number of closures due to serious breaches of standards, with significant implications for vulnerable residents. Ben Goodair, a co-author, noted that forced closures often reflect severe neglect or abuse, leading to substantial costs for local authorities. The study also reveals a concerning concentration of care homes in affluent areas, leaving deprived localities underserved.

Probably better served posting this in the NHS or government thread. This thread is where posts go to die and this is an important topic and reasonably coupled with Labours ambitions around freeing up beds and community care.

dont think anyone was surprised, just as no-one is surprised it was missing from the murdoch/dacre lie-sheets....too busy trying to equate tory corruption involving billions to donors, with tickets to a Swift gig for Starmer

Tory Members have a choice of:

• Corrupt Bullshit Artist
• Racist Corrupt Bullshit artist

For next leader.

Have a feeling the Corrupt Bullshit artist will win it but how long will he last?

Is that the Corrupt Bullshit Artist that unlawfully passed a planning consent for a Tory donor?
Or the Corrupt Bullshit Artist that hacked an opposition MP's computer?
