Being prepared for CQC inspection


If you’re a new service or new manager it’s vital you are prepared for your first CQC inspection. This module is also useful to introduce other staff at your service to the CQC inspection process.

Being prepared for CQC inspection covers:

  • why inspection is important
  • what and how will the CQC inspect
  • what does good and outstanding care look like
  • who can help you prepare for inspection
  • how to evidence you are meeting CQC expectations.

The module is fantastic and easy to use. It has helped me already. It’s very welcome at a time where focussing on this important area has been difficult. I have not found it easy obtaining quality advice in this area. I know I can trust °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ for Care. It has helped me to be clearer about how to prepare for inspection.

Improving your CQC rating

If your service has fallen below CQC standards, quick recovery is essential to ensure the quality of care provided is adequate and to protect your reputation.

Improving your CQC rating covers:

  • the impact of falling below CQC standards
  • how to identify and prioritise areas for improvement
  • involving others in helping you to improve
  • how to test, review and implement improvements
  • practical ways to evidence improvements.

Great course, it really highlighted some of the things I already knew but didn’t quite grasp. I learnt how to look at the improvements needed and manage them in an effective and efficient way.

Delivering Outstanding Care

For those committed to delivering the highest levels of care, this module covers how you can exceed CQC expectations to achieve an 'Outstanding' rating.

Delivering Outstanding care covers:

  • what does outstanding care look like

  • identifying gaps between good and outstanding care

  • involving others in delivering outstanding care

  • evidencing that you are delivering outstanding care.

This was extremely useful, for me as a new manager to look at what we do now and what we could be doing. It was reassuring to see actually how much of this I was already doing, so that made me feel confident, and it gave me inspiration for continuous improvement.
