CQC Consultant for Dual-Service in Health and Care Industry

I’m midway through acquiring a new site that will run both care-home and domiciliary services, and I need a seasoned CQC specialist to keep everything on track. Registration has already started, but the real pressure now is tightening governance, finalising a robust policy suite, and shaping an operational set-up that satisfies the regulator from day one.

The brief
– Spend an initial onboarding period on site (travel paid), get to know the team and the service model, then continue remotely.
– Lead the refinement of all governance and policy documents, aligning them with current CQC fundamental standards.
– Design practical operating procedures and reporting lines that stand up to inspection and support day-to-day delivery.
– Coach a young, enthusiastic in-house team so they can maintain compliance long-term.

Who tends to succeed
Whether you are semi-retired, an ex-registered manager or a compliance lead, proven success with CQC-regulated services—ideally across both residential and domiciliary settings—is essential. Up-to-date knowledge of the latest CQC framework, KLOEs and inspection methodology will be key.

What you’ll hand over
• A complete, CQC-ready governance and policy pack
• An operational blueprint covering staffing, record-keeping, quality assurance and auditing
• Clear action plan for any remaining registration tasks
• Staff training notes and handover guidance
