RQIA does not give ratings
RQIA checks whether a service meets the law and the Department of Health’s minimum care standards. RQIA’s guidance for providers says its inspections look at four areas: Is care safe? Is care effective? Is care compassionate? Is the service well led?
How often RQIA inspects
RQIA says it inspects every nursing home and residential care home at least twice a year. Most inspections are unannounced.
“Areas for improvement” and the quality improvement plan
RQIA’s guidance for providers says that where a service does not fully meet a regulation or a standard, the report lists an “area for improvement”. These are set out in a quality improvement plan (QIP), which shows each area, the regulation or standard it relates to, and the date for it to be done. A report describes what RQIA found on the day. It is not a full review of everything at the service.
