About MyCareCheck
MyCareCheck lists every care home in England registered with the CQC, with its latest rating, so families can shortlist homes quickly and spend their time visiting.
What MyCareCheck is
MyCareCheck lists every care home in England registered with the Care Quality Commission, the regulator that inspects them. For each home you can see its latest rating, how the inspectors rated the five questions they ask, how many people it is registered to look after and the type of care it provides.
Why it exists
Choosing a care home often happens in a hurry, sometimes straight after a stay in hospital. The CQC publishes what families need to compare homes, but it is spread across thousands of inspection reports. We bring it together by area, so you can draw up a shortlist in minutes and spend your time visiting the homes on it.
Independent of the homes
No home can pay to change its rating, its score or its place in a list. Homes can claim their page to add photos, fees and vacancies. Some pay for a fuller page (Pro) or a fixed place at the top of their list (Top), and both are always labelled. We only offer Top places to homes rated Good or Outstanding.
Who looks after the site
