The regulation body is in charge of inspecting all health and social care services in England. This includes health facilities such as hospitals, dentists, ambulances, and care homes, helping provide patients with the information they need so they can make choices about their care.
Inspectors judge each health and social care service based on the five CQC standards which are: Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive and Well-Led, with four ratings available - Outstanding, Good, Requires Improvement and Inadequate. These ratings must be displayed by law where patients can easily see them, such as in the main entrance of a hospital or a GP waiting room.
A total of 42 hospitals and treatment centres across Yorkshire are on the CQC list. Whilst 16 did not receive a rating, 22 have scored highly. Here is every hospital in Yorkshire rated good or outstanding by inspectors.
