Care quality in Scotland
3,885 adult social-care services across 32 council areas and
306 towns, registered and graded by the Care Inspectorate, Scotland's regulator.
Scotland is graded differently from England. The Care Inspectorate grades each
service on a scale of
1 (Unsatisfactory) to 6 (Excellent) across themes such as wellbeing,
care and support, setting, staff and leadership. This is
not the same as, and is not
comparable with, the Care Quality Commission's Outstanding / Good ratings used in
England. Healthcare such as GPs and dentists is regulated separately in Scotland
and is not covered here.
