This metric is derived by the LGA (Local Government Association) from the CQC (Care Quality Commission's) Care Directory file. The file contains a complete list of the places in England where care is regulated by CQC. Using the National Statistics Postcode Lookup, we have counted the number of nursing homes located in an area and then created a crude rate per 1,000 resident population.

A care home is a place where personal care and accommodation are provided together. People may live in the service for short or long periods. For many people, it is their sole place of residence and so it becomes their home, although they do not legally own or rent it. Both the care that people receive and the premises are regulated.

In addition, qualified nursing care is provided to ensure that the full needs of the person using the service are met.

Examples of services that fit under this category:

Nursing home Convalescent home with nursing Respite care with nursing Mental health crisis house with nursing

Data is extracted once a quarter and provides a snapshot in time. It should be noted that due to changes to postcodes, a small proportion cannot be matched to the latest National Statistics Postcode Lookup file and are therefore excluded from these figures.

This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents aged 65 years and over living in a care home in England and Wales. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.

An estimation of the size of the self-funding population in care homes in England, using an experimental method. Weighted annual data broken down by geographic variables and care home characteristics.

Care Homes provide a residential setting for people that require 24 hour care. The majority of Care Homes provide services for older people, but some offer services to Children and those with Mental or Sensory Impairments.

All Care Homes in the UK are registered, inspected and listed by the relevant authority, which in England and Wales is currently the Care Quality Commission (CQC) There are two main categories of care home; those which provide only personal care and those which also provide nursing care. In addition, some Care Homes provide specialist care, eg for Dementia or Terminal Illness

Care Homes are often run by groups. In these instances we provide the group name and details and record a link from each home to its parent organisation, but we list each home as separate entities due to each having their own considerations/services.

Type of ownership:

The database details the type of ownership of the Homes

Private Homes run by individuals, partnerships and public and private limited companies.

Voluntary Homes that are run by Charities such as The Leonard Cheshire Foundation or Mencap.

Public Homes that are run by Local Authorities and NHS Trusts

Number of beds:

We list the number of Beds for each organisation. The average size of home is approximately 20 beds, whilst only 10% have more than 50 beds. There are almost 3,000 homes with five or fewer beds. These usually provide very specific types of care, including provision for Care in the Community and, if privately owned, should not normally be regarded as commercial undertakings.

Number of council-supported permanent admissions of younger adults (aged 18-64) to residential and nursing care divided by the size of the younger adult population (aged 18-64) in the area multiplied by 100,000. People counted as a permanent admission include: Residents where the local authority makes any contribution to the costs of care, no matter how trivial the amount and irrespective of how the balance of these costs are metSupported residents in: Local authority-staffed care homes for residential careIndependent sector care homes for residential careRegistered care homes for nursing careResidential or nursing care which is of a permanent nature and where the intention is that the spell of care should not be ended by a set date. For people classified as permanent residents, the care home would be regarded as their normal place of residence. Where a person who is normally resident in a care home is temporarily absent at 31 March (e.g. through temporary hospitalisation) and the local authority is still providing financial support for that placement, the person should be included in the numerator. Trial periods in residential or nursing care homes where the intention is that the stay will become permanent should be counted as permanent. Whether a resident or admission is counted as permanent or temporary depends on the intention of the placement at the time of admission. The transition from ASC-CAR to SALT resulted in a change to which admissions were captured by this measure, and a change to the measure definition. 12-week disregards and full cost clients are now included, whereas previously they were excluded from the measure. Furthermore, whilst ASC-CAR recorded the number of people who were admitted to residential or nursing care during the year, the relevant SALT tables record the number of people for whom residential/nursing care was planned as a sequel to a request for support, a review, or short-term support to maximise independence Only covers people receiving partly or wholly supported care from their Local Authority and not wholly private, self-funded care.

Reports what people aged 65 and over, who receive care in their own home, think of the service they are receiving. It gives older peoples' opinions on a number of areas including how safe they feel and whether they are happy with their care worker.

his statistical report presents information on residential and nursing care placements funded by Councils with Adult Social Services Responsibilities (CASSRs). The information used within this publication is collected on the annual SR1 form as at 31 March. The figures on Supported Residents are for adults only. It is useful to consider the statistics in this report alongside statistics on day and domiciliary services provided to people based in the community (see section on related publications). This report also includes analysis of the Public Service Agreement(PSA) target which relates to older people being supported intensively in their own home as an alternative to residential care.

Community Services Statistics - December 2018 This is a monthly report on publicly funded community services using data from the Community Services Data Set (CSDS) reported in England for December 2018. The CSDS is a patient-level dataset providing information relating to publicly funded community services. These services can include health centres, schools, mental health trusts, and health visiting services. The data collected includes personal and demographic information, diagnoses including long-term conditions and disabilities and care events plus screening activities. It has been developed to help achieve better outcomes for children, young people and adults. It provides data that will be used to commission services in a way that improves health, reduces inequalities, and supports service improvement and clinical quality. Prior to October 2017, the predecessor Children and Young Peoples Health Services (CYPHS) Data Set collected data for children and young people aged 0-18. The CSDS superseded the CYPHS data set to allow adult community data to be submitted, expanding the scope of the existing data set by removing the 0-18 age restriction. The structure and content of the CSDS remains the same as the previous CYPHS data set. Further information about the CYPHS and related statistical reports is available in the related links below. References to children and young people covers records submitted for 0-18 year olds and references to adults covers records submitted for those aged over 18. Where analysis for both groups have been combined, this is referred to as all patients. These statistics are classified as experimental and should be used with caution. Experimental statistics are new official statistics undergoing evaluation. They are published in order to involve users and stakeholders in their development and as a means to build in quality at an early stage. More information about experimental statistics can be found on the UK Statistics Authority website. We hope this information is helpful and would be grateful if you could spare a couple of minutes to complete a short customer satisfaction survey. Please use the survey in the related links to provide us with any feedback or suggestions for improving the report.

This report presents information on the number of people who are helped to live more independently in their own homes as a result of schemes provided by voluntary and other organisations in the independent sector, through grants from Councils with Adult Social Services Responsibilities (CASSRs) in England. The schemes included in the Grant Funded Services return (GFS1) provide services that do not form part of a formal care package agreed by the council, but which are nevertheless funded with grants from social services and other council budgets.

The proportion of older people discharged from hospital to their own home or to a residential or nursing care home or extra care housing bed for rehabilitation with a clear intention that they will move on / back to their own home (including a place in extra care housing or an adult placement scheme setting) who are at home or in extra care housing or an adult placement scheme setting three months after the date of their discharge from hospital.

The percentage of all deaths that occur at home.

This is a monthly report on publicly funded community services for people of all ages using data from the Community Services Data Set (CSDS) reported in England for May 2021. It has been developed to help achieve better outcomes and provide data that will be used to commission services in a way that improves health, reduces inequalities, and supports service improvement and clinical quality. This report uses the new version of the dataset, CSDS v1.5. As an uplift from v1.0, the v1.5 dataset collects additional data on a person's care plan details, employment status and social & personal circumstances. These statistics are classified as experimental and should be used with caution. Experimental statistics are new official statistics undergoing evaluation. More information about experimental statistics can be found on the UK Statistics Authority website. Due to the coronavirus illness (COVID-19) disruption, the quality and coverage of some of our statistics has been affected, for example by an increase in non-submissions for some datasets. We are also seeing some different patterns in the submitted data. For example, fewer patients being referred to hospital and more appointments being carried out via phone/telemedicine/email. Therefore, data should be interpreted with care over the COVID-19 period.
