Registered manager
from
NICE Guideline NG189 - Safeguarding adults in care homes
Source
Care homes registered with the Care Quality Commission must have a registered manager, in line with the Health and Social Care Act 2008. The registered manager is responsible for leading and running the care home and making sure that standards are upheld. Note that other managers may also work within care homes and have responsibilities for staff supervision, line management, or other aspects of running the home. However, the registered manager is the person accountable to the Care Quality Commission for the standards of care and safeguarding within the home.
