title: This is what excellent care homes look like.
abstract: Read the national press and you could be forgiven for thinking that care homes are depressing places where older people go to die in grim surroundings. While criticism of some care homes is justified, in reality there are many others where staff deliver excellent care without receiving recognition. Nursing Standard seeks to redress this balance by showcasing a home that has been adjudged excellent by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
