Cura Systems response to the CQC State of Care report

This year’s State of Care report shows the quality of health and social care has been maintained, despite very real challenges, the majority of people are getting good care.

CQC State of Annual Report in Health Care

Professor Martin Green, OBE, Chief Executive of Care England highlighted, “There is a lot of uncertainty in the sector and by dragging its heels, and Government simply cannot abdicate responsibility for those in need of care.”
