What will be different
FROM
• Focus on Yes/No ‘compliance’
• A low and unclear bar
TO
• Professional, intelligence-based judgements.
• Ratings: Clear reports that talk about safe,
effective, caring, well-led and responsive care
• 28 regulations, 16 outcomes
• Five key questions
• CQC as part of the system
with responsibility for
improvement
• On the side of people who use services.
• Generalist inspectors
• Specialist with teams of experts.
• Generic inspections
• Longer, thorough and people-focussed
inspections.
• Corporate body and registered
manager held to account for
the quality of care
• Individuals at Board level also held to account
for the quality of care.
• Providers and commissioners clearly
responsible for improvement.

The New Regulations
New government regulations – to be introduced April 2015
• Fewer in number and more concise than current 16 Quality
and Safety regulations; plus additional regulation (Fit and
Proper Person Test & Duty of Candour)
• Set out the high level ‘outcome’ that providers must deliver
in order to meet the regulation
• In effect setting the fundamental standards in legislation
o
Where the quality of care at an NHS trust requires significant
improvement, new options exist to place a trust in special
measures or to use the new single failure regime – we works
closely with NHS TDA/Monitor in these circumstances.
