CareSearch
Updated in real-time | Category: DATA
CareSearch is an online database, combining public and proprietary data into an easy-to-use platform.
Cross checked and augmented by our in-house data analysts, you can research over 17,000 individual care homes and 1,500 care home groups across the UK.
A trusted resource developed by LaingBuisson, CareSearch was developed to provide sector-wide transparency and clarity. Whether you are an investor, supplier, local authority, or operator, CareSearch can help you access accurate, real-time information such as CQC and financial data in one place, view services on a map, and export results for Excel use.
Save time when it comes to analysing competitors, identify acquisitions, or support sales and marketing. Instead, find independent providers with ease for future market planning and outsourcing or partnership opportunities. To make things easier, users can also search by geography, sector, service type, and more.
