Achieving CQC Outstanding: How the GoodOaks Homecare franchise model delivers

Achieving a CQC Outstanding rating is a significant milestone for our homecare franchise network with GoodOaks Homecare Epsom and Reigate being rated Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission following their first inspection.

GoodOaks Homecare Franchise CQC Outstanding Rating

This is the highest rating a service can achieve and a significant milestone for our network. It demonstrates what is possible when the right systems, support and culture are in place from day one.

“A service that sets an exceptional standard of care from the very start.” – Care Quality Commission

For prospective Franchise Partners, this achievement is more than a success story. It is proof that the GoodOaks model delivers.

Compliance you can feel confident in

For many entering the homecare sector, CQC compliance is one of the biggest concerns.

Understanding regulations, preparing for inspection and maintaining consistent standards can feel complex and high risk without the right support.

At GoodOaks, compliance is not something you need to build from scratch. It is built into the model.

From day one, Franchise Partners are supported with:

  • Robust policies and procedures
  • Clear operational frameworks
  • Ongoing guidance and audit support
  • A structure designed to meet and exceed CQC expectations

This means you can focus on building your business and supporting your community, with confidence that your compliance is in safe hands.

Strong leadership creates outstanding services

The CQC recognised GoodOaks Homecare Epsom and Reigate not only for its care, but for its leadership and culture.

Inspectors highlighted a service where staff felt valued, supported and proud of their work, with leaders who were visible, approachable and committed to high standards.

This is no accident. At GoodOaks, we believe that strong leadership and a positive culture are essential to delivering high-quality care. Our Franchise Partners are supported to build teams that feel confident, capable and motivated to deliver outstanding outcomes.

A proven framework, not guesswork

Starting a homecare business independently often means navigating compliance, recruitment and operations without a clear roadmap.

The GoodOaks franchise model removes that uncertainty.

You are not starting from scratch. You are building on a proven framework that has already demonstrated its ability to achieve Outstanding outcomes.

The success of Epsom and Reigate is a clear example of what can be achieved when that framework is applied with care and consistency.

Raising the standard in homecare

This Outstanding rating reflects more than the success of one branch.

It shows what is possible across the GoodOaks network and reinforces our commitment to setting the standard for high-quality, person-centred homecare.

For those considering joining the sector, it offers reassurance that with the right support, outstanding is not just an ambition, it is an expectation.
