Registration is provider-level, but quality is judged premises by premises
Supported accommodation providers have to satisfy the Supported Accommodation Regulations and the Quality Standards across every premises they operate, with oversight that holds up as the portfolio grows.

The four Quality Standards, tested in practice
A readiness review assesses the service against each standard using real evidence, not a checklist of policies.
Protection
Whether safeguarding and protection arrangements actually work when something goes wrong.
Accommodation
Whether the premises are suitable, safe and appropriate for the young people placed there.
Support
Whether support planning builds independence and reflects each young person's needs.
Leadership and management
Whether oversight, auditing and governance identify and correct weaknesses.
