How many care homes are there in Essex?
403 CQC-registered care homes (residential and nursing homes combined) operate in Essex, as of 2026-06-12. The CQC registers and inspects every care home in England, so this reflects the providers legally authorised to deliver residential care there.
How many dentists are there in Essex?
308 CQC-registered dental providers operate in Essex, as of 2026-06-12. Every dental practice in England must register with the Care Quality Commission to treat patients.
Is a care home in Essex rated Good or Outstanding?
The CQC rates each inspected provider as Outstanding, Good, Requires improvement or Inadequate — a category, not a 0–5 star score, so there is no numeric average for Essex. To check a specific provider's current rating, look it up by name on the official CQC website. Some registered providers have not yet been inspected and so carry no rating. The most recent CQC record update for Essex is dated 8 June 2026.
Where does this Essex care-provider data come from?
Every figure is taken directly from the Care Quality Commission register for Essex (1,063 providers on record), sourced from www.cqc.org.uk under the Open Government Licence v3.0, as of 2026-06-12. GeraClinic publishes provider (business) records only — never any patient data — and mixes in no estimates or survey data.

Methodology

Figures are computed from 1,063 real Care Quality Commission provider records for Essex. CQC publishes a categorical rating scheme (Outstanding / Good / Requires improvement / Inadequate), never a 0–5 numeric scale — so this page shows no numeric average and no star ratings. No estimates or survey data are mixed in. Provider (business) records only — no patient data is shown. Data as of 2026-06-12.
