All the latest ratings for care homes in Tameside
Last month's scores for care homes have been released – with two services in Tameside given new ratings.
The Care Quality Commission gives ratings to care providers and other organisations across England. It rates how well the service is performing against various criteria – with overall rankings ranging from 'outstanding' to 'inadequate'.

A care home, The Sycamores, was told it 'requires improvement' on September 8. The home was last inspected on August 9.
Having been inspected on September 4, Millbrook Care Centre – another residential care home – was judged as 'good'. The rating was published on September 23.
The CQC gives organisations four different ratings. The worst is an 'inadequate' rating, which ordinarily results in the organisation being placed in special measures by the CQC. Social care services can also be given a less serious rating of 'requires improvement' when they are not up to standard.
At the other end of the scale, services given 'outstanding' ratings are judged to be performing exceptionally well, and a 'good' rating means the organisation is meeting expectations.
