Changes to regulations for CQC registration


The Department of Health has this month launched a consultation on proposed changes to the regulations for Care Quality Commission registration. Currently the majority of health and social care providers, regardless of whether they are run privately or are NHS led, have to register with the Care Quality Commission and continue to demonstrate their compliance with the posed regulations. This consultation is therefore of particular interest to anyone organisation that is currently registered with the CQC, is in the process of finalising their registration with the CQC, or will need to register with the CQC before April 2013.

All are welcome to comment on the consultation. The closing date for comments is the 7th October 2011. The full consultation document and response forms can be found on the Department of Health's website.
