2. Our vision and values new regulator for health and social care � created April 2009
opportunity to do things differently through the new registration system - to focus on outcomes for people and to take their experiences into account
we put people who use services, their families and carers at the centre of everything we do � we are informed by what they tell us
3. Who are we?
4. Objective - at all points of care
People can expect services to meet essential standards of quality, protect their safety and respect their dignity and rights.
5. CQC registration and standards
6. Registration timeline
8. Quality and Risk Profile (QRP)
Gathers all we know � other regulators, people who use and commission services, providers
Assesses risk of a provider becoming non-compliant
Prompts front line regulatory activity
Not a rating, ranking or league table
Inspectors make judgements based on information in the QRP � the QRP itself does not give a judgement
Constantly updated and builds over time � not a �perfect� state
QRP is a prompt � a tin opener, not a dial
9. QRP � how it will look
10. QRP � how it will look
11. QRP � how it will look
12. Reviews of compliance
13. Enforcement It is the duty of providers to ensure compliance at all times
Should a provider not become compliant with the standards required, CQC can:
give a warning notice
Issue a fine
prosecute
apply restrictions on activities or even
close a service.�

Now registering 27,000 providers of adult social care and independent healthcare for 1 October 2010
Standards are based on legislation: they have legal force and it is the duty of providers to ensure compliance at all times
�50m saving from annual cost of regulating health and adult social care � one third
18. �Provider profiles� Shows our judgement and how and when it was made
Clearly laid out to give information to people who use services
Flexible � updated when we make a new judgement
Subject to user testing to make sure it delivers information that can inform user choice
Will apply across heath and adult social care
NHS launch due early 2011; social care summer 2011
19. Changes to regulation DH and CQC have agreed to halt further action on periodic review of the NHS � the �annual health check�
Some data will be published in October / November. Details are being finalised
The full set of data collected as part of periodic review will feed into QRP
APA will continue and be broadly similar to last year
