Peace of Mind
Karingmore is regulated and regularly inspected by the Regulation and Quality Improvement Authority ( RQIA) for N.Ireland which parallels the activity of the of the CQC in the remainder of the UK. The RQIA is the independent body responsible for monitoring and inspecting and quality of residential care in N. Ireland, and encouraging improvements. The RQIA's role is to ensure that the services in Northern Ireland are accessible, well managed and meet the required standards. They work to ensure that there is openness, clarity and accountability in the management and delivery of all these services.
The RQIA also places a statutory duty of quality upon residential care homes, and requires them to develop standards against which the quality of services can be measured. Karingmore Private Residential Home meets and frequently exceeds the standards enforced by the RQIA. Our inspection reports ensure peace of mind for relatives and demonstrate that our standards of care are amongst the highest locally available. All of our reports are available to review either in Karingmore by appointment or on the RQIA website. www.rqia.org.uk

Karingmore's kitchens use only the finest locally sourced foods, prepared with the care and attention that is required to ensure it meets the high expectations of the residents but also that they receive their required nutritional intake in a varied and interesting manner. We take great pride in maintaining the standards and quality of the food that leaves Karingmore's kitchens and this has been reflected in the facility being awarded a 5 star rating by the Larne Borough Council Hygiene standards.
