Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, pursuant to the Answer of 4 April 2017 to Question 69386, on care homes, how many (a) registered care home and (b) nursing home places there were in each clinical commissioning group area in (i) 2017, (ii) 2016 and (iii) 2015.

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) is the independent regulator of health and adult social care in England. The CQC has provided the following information in the attached table showing number of active care homes and number of care home beds for each clinical commissioning group area in 2017, 2016 and 2015.

Notes:

- A care home with both service types of ‘care home with nursing’ and ‘care home without nursing’ is classified as a nursing home. A residential home is a ‘care home service without nursing’.

- Care home bed numbers can change over time. The data supplied is based on the number of beds at date of data extraction, or date of the location's de-activation if it is no longer active.
