Expand your knowledge of what it takes to deliver the highest standards of care and how to exceed Care Quality Commission (CQC) expectations.  

This one-day facilitated session provides insight into what outstanding care looks like and how to be best prepared to evidence this to the Care Quality Commission (CQC). 

Understanding the CQC assessment process and how you can evidence that the quality of care complies with the national standards is important for the people you support, staff teams and the wider reputation of your service.

It covered the new single assessment framework and the quality statements, so it was really helpful. The facilitators interacted really well knew their stuff. It will be a massive help to our next inspection. I will use everything I gained from it.
