Liverpool's Adult Social Care rated as 'Good' by Care Quality Commission
LIVERPOOL City Council has proudly announced that the Care Quality Commission (CQC) has rated the City's Ault Social Care as:- 'Good,' recognising its ongoing commitment to delivering high quality, compassionate care for residents.
The report highlights that people receiving care and support in Liverpool:- "felt listened to, their wishes and feelings were respected, and families were actively involved in assessments." Staff across adult social care said they:- "felt motivated, supported, and valued," while the leadership of the Director of adult social care was described as:- "visible and approachable, with a clear understanding of social work practice and its challenges." Liverpool City Council’s emphasis on staff wellbeing, peer support, and professional development was also recognised as a key strength. A major contributor to the positive rating is the Council’s adult social care transformation programme, which prioritises independence, reablement, and a person-centred approach. Councillor Angela Coleman, Cabinet Member for Adult Social Care, said:- "This is a proud moment for Liverpool and a reflection of our commitment to putting residents at the heart of everything we do. It’s clear that residents and staff feel listened to, respected, and supported. The CQC report highlights the compassion, professionalism, and dedication of our adult social care teams. While we’re pleased with the progress made, we recognise there is still more to do. Transformation is a journey, and we remain focused on improving services, listening to residents, and supporting our hardworking staff every step of the way. This is also a great time to join us.

We’re not doing things to people; we’re working with them, empowering residents to take control of their care. I want to thank all of our staff. This rating is a testament to their hard work and dedication. We understand there is still more to do and will continue building on this momentum as we move into the next phase of transformation."
