Up To One Third Of Care Homes Are Not Up To Scratch

According to a report published in The Times today the CQC says that up to one third of England’s care homes are not up to standard.

It’s a distressing statistic, but unfortunately not surprising to us here at Mulderrigs.

We see lots of care home negligence cases involving accidents, neglect and abuse.

Maybe it’s just us, but we think there’s something badly wrong with a society that can’t or won’t look after its elderly and vulnerable citizens.
