Bespoke CQC Training Events
To be an ‘Outstanding’ provider, a healthcare provider must understand how to embed best practice throughout their governance and organisational structure and be prepared to adapt their organisation to the changing requirements of the Care Quality Commission.
With a bespoke CQC Training Day led by the iBenchmark CQC Training team, comprised of experiend CQC trainers and former CQC inspectors. Your healthcare provider can ensure that your team have a detailed understanding of how to shape the processes of your organisation around achieving an ‘Outstanding’ CQC rating.
Our ‘Understanding the New CQC Framework and How To Be Outstanding’ training aims to keep your team members updated with best practice guidance, the latest regulatory changes and how this will impact the role of individuals, the service users and the organisation as a whole. This includes helping your team to understand how they can meet the Key Lines of Enquiry (KLOEs) and CQC Fundamental Standards.
Our CQC Training Days are constantly evolving to ensure that we are aware and ahead of any regulatory changes, and we can adapt our Course Agenda to ensure we are meeting your sector-specific requirements and your areas of concern or interest.
With a private, service-specific ‘Understanding the New CQC Framework and How To Be Outstanding’ Training Day, we can deliver a detailed and engaging day of support at your site, that will increase the understanding of the roles and responsibilities of your team, and ensure everyone can effectively engage in proactively maintaining and evidencing compliance.
If you are not looking to book a private, service-specific CQC Training Day for your entire team, please see below our open-invite, nationwide CQC Training Events that are held at some of the most prestigious venues in the country.
