Methodology
Figures are computed from 58 real Care Quality Commission records for hospices in England (CQC service type "Hospice" or "Home hospice care"). A location registered for more than one service type appears in each relevant section; within this section every number is an exact count of registered locations. CQC publishes a categorical inspection scheme (Outstanding / Good / Requires improvement / Inadequate), never a 0–5 numeric scale, so we show no average and no AggregateRating. No estimates or survey data are mixed in. Data as of 2026-06-12.
