Home / CQC and Ofsted support
Stay compliant
Mock inspections, audit cycles, policy suites and regulatory correspondence for services registered with CQC or Ofsted in England. Ongoing support or a single piece of work, always scoped as a fixed fee.
Nobody reads everything. An inspector picks a handful of care plans, follows a medication trail, talks to three staff and one relative, and forms a view. If the sample they choose happens to be your weakest, that view becomes your rating.
The way to survive that is not a frantic month of tidying. It is a routine that produces evidence continuously, so any sample an inspector could take says the same thing. Audits with dates on them. Actions with owners and closure notes. Supervision records that show a conversation actually happened.
We build that routine, then test it by inspecting you ourselves, honestly and in writing, before someone with enforcement powers does it for real.
If a draft report has landed and you disagree with it, the factual accuracy window is short and it is the only stage where wording can still change.
Send it to us the day it arrives. We will tell you plainly whether there is a case to make, and if there is, we will help you make it.
Urgent help with a reportPick the piece you need. Each one can be bought on its own or folded into a monthly arrangement if you would rather we simply held the compliance function for you.
Two consultants on site, the same lines of enquiry a real inspection uses, and a scored written report with a prioritised action plan. No verbal reassurance.
Every key question given its own folder, populated with your own documents and kept current so nothing has to be assembled under pressure.
A twelve-month schedule of audits, meetings and reviews with templates, owners and escalation routes that fit the size of service you actually run.
A suite matched to your regulated activities and rewritten in your language, so staff recognise the process described as the one they follow.
Coaching, interview preparation and a second opinion on hand for managers carrying the registration on their own name.
Regulation 44 arrangements, location risk assessments and quality standards evidence for children's homes and supported accommodation.
Applications, statements of purpose and manager readiness for services that have not opened.
Warning notices, conditions and enforcement handled with a phone-first response.
Commissioning, pricing and framework work once the governance underneath it is sound.
