Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspectors visit health and social care providers across the country to ensure they are performing well and are safe for the patients.
Inspectors consider whether the service is safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led and rate each category individually, before calculating an overall rating.
The ratings include five categories: outstanding, good, requires improvement, or inadequate.
