Too much "awful care" is happening in care homes in England, the chief inspector of adult social care at the Care Quality Commission (CQC) has told the BBC.
The standard of care in homes in England is "not good enough at the moment", Andrea Sutcliffe admitted.
CQC publishes new plans for how it will regulate, inspect and rate care homes on Thursday.
Ms Sutcliffe said CQC's reputation was improving.
The commission has faced severe criticism after a series of abuse scandals in residential homes.
