CSCI
Definition: The Commission for Social Care Inspection (CSCI) inspects and registers care homes in England.
The Commission for Social Care Inspection (CSCI) is an independent public body which came into being in April 2004. It brings together the work previously undertaken by the Social Services Inspectorate, the SSI/ Audit Commission joint review team and the social care functions of the National Care Standards Commission. Its functions are to inspect all social care organisations in England and to register those that meet national minimum standards. All care homes in England are inspected regularly by the Commission, and its reports are available to read on its website.
