Our Credentials
Company Registration
As a company we are registered with the Care Quality Commission (formerly the Commission for Social Care Inspection). The Care Quality Commission is the independent regulator of health and social care in England and their aim is to make sure better care is provided for everyone.
A copy of the latest CQC report for each of our area offices can be found on the Care Quality Commission website.
Investors in People
We were accredited with the Investors in People Award in 1999, proving that we value our staff through training, development and communication. We were most recently re-accredited in February 2011.
