Workshop Overview:
Following the introduction of the CQC's new Single Assessment Framework, inspections have changed. The inspection visit is now an observation visit. The CQC will visit services to carry out an observation when they perceive that there is a risk of poor care or closed culture, when they need to check the validity of evidence submitted or speak to the right people. As with the previous inspection visits, these observational visits can be unannounced. So, all care providers must be prepared for observational visits and know what the CQC will be checking.
Learning Objectives:
During this workshop, you will learn how to prepare for the observation visit and how to disseminate this information to the staff team.
The workshop will cover:
- The purpose of the observation visit - what has changed?
- Key areas of non-compliance and how to avoid them.
- How to involve your staff and ensure that you are observation ready at all times.
- Tips on how to manage the observation visit.
- Key actions to take when receiving and responding to feedback and how to take immediate action following an observation visit.
- Understanding the role of external compliance audits in preparing for inspection.
- Plus, the opportunity to have all of your questions answered by our expert, Tim.
