Care Inspectorate is a government body that independently regulates care services for people of all ages in Scotland. Based in Dundee, Scotland, it registers, inspects, and grades services, handles complaints, and takes enforcement action when necessary to drive improvement in both care provision and local authority social work, including criminal justice social work. It also conducts joint inspections with partners such as police, health boards, and education to assess how well services collaborate to deliver support for adults and children. The organization focuses on evaluating care quality, promoting best practices, identifying areas for improvement, and supporting innovation, with the overarching aim of enhancing people’s experience of care and their lives. In March 2026, Care Inspectorate announced a collaborative effort with Public Health Scotland to develop revised guidance through a multi-partner working group, underscoring ongoing sector collaboration.
