What CQC looks at
Responsive: Requires improvement
CQC checks whether care is planned around each person’s needs and wishes. It looks at care plans, joined-up care with other services, clear information, and how feedback and complaints are listened to and acted on.
Questions you could ask
- How is the care plan written, and how can family be involved?
- How often is the care plan reviewed?
- How can I raise a concern, and what happens next?
Questions you could ask
- What has changed since the last inspection?
How often CQC looks again
