Each theme is rated individually rather than giving services a single overall score.<\/p>\n<p>Between April and October 2025, Care Inspectorate Wales awarded a total of 2,115 ratings. Of those, 1,958, representing 92.5%, were graded as either excellent or good.<\/p>\n<p>The Welsh Government said the ratings are designed to support continuous improvement across the care sector and to help people better understand the quality of care being provided.<\/p>\n<p>The new approach has been welcomed by providers, with feedback indicating the inspection process has been thorough, transparent and focused on helping services improve.<\/p>\n<p>Minister for Children and Social Care Dawn Bowden said:<br \/>\u201cThese results demonstrate the exceptional dedication and professionalism of care providers across Wales.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s positive to see over nine in ten ratings show our services are delivering excellent or good care to some of our most vulnerable people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe new ratings system provides transparency and clarity for families making important decisions about care, whilst also highlighting areas of excellence and encouraging the sector to continue improving.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chief Inspector of Care Inspectorate Wales Gillian Baranski said:<br \/>\u201cI am incredibly proud of what these ratings reveal about care in Wales. These results are a testament to the exceptional dedication of care staff across Wales who make a real difference to people\u2019s lives every day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe new ratings system is designed to recognise this excellence whilst also supporting services to improve. We\u2019re committed to working alongside all providers to help them deliver the high-quality care people in Wales deserve.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spotted something? Got a story?
