About the directory of care homes and care services

What information is available?

When you search for a care home or care service you will find:

  1. details of the service it offers and for how many people
  2. our reports about the care home or care service.

The reports say what the service does well and list any improvements they need to make.

Some reports – like those for children's homes – are not available on our website. Find out how to get other reports.

Updates

Following a Department of Health consultation with service providers, it has been agreed that any care home can provide care for terminally ill people provided they can show that they have the staff and facilities to be able to do so. They no longer need to have a special registration category.
