A GP surgery that was previously slapped with the lowest rating has again been ordered to improve after a fresh inspection.
Four Acre Health Centre in St Helens was previously inspected in September 2021, where it was slapped with an "inadequate" rating, the lowest that can be given by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). As a result of the poor rating, the practice was placed in special measures with a view of improving the care provided.
The CQC breaks down the ratings into different categories: safety, how effective its services were, how caring, how responsive and how well led they were.
