The CQC has announced that from 8 January 2024, they will start using their new single assessment framework in the London and East of England region. This new approach changes how the CQC will assess quality and performance.
At Cura Compliance, we are experts in regulatory compliance and guiding healthcare providers to not only meet CQC standards but exceed them. We can help your business understand CQC’s changing approach and ensure you are fully prepared.
What to expect with the new assessments
While the CQC’s expectations of care are not changing, there are some key shifts in how they will assess providers:
- Consolidated into a single assessment framework rather than separate processes
- Stronger emphasis on data and statistical information
- More qualitative information gathered through conversations with people who experience care
- New key lines of enquiry and quality statements to measure against
