“Inspectors rated supported living service as ‘inadequate’
“Inspectors rated supported living service as ‘inadequate’ (Barnet Press March 2015)
The above headline refers to a report publicshed by Care Quality Commission (CQC) on a service provided by Your Choice Barnet. UNISON were not made aware that there had been an inspection in August or that the report has been issued in October 2014. It was publicised 3 March. This meant we were shocked to find out it was front page of the Barnet press this week.
Barnet UNISON found the report online here http://www.cqc.org.uk/provider/1-352049593
We have downloaded the report and highlighted in yellow some of the serious concerns raised by CQC, which you can read here
