We have published guidance on completing the quality of care review

Under the 2016 Act, providers of adult and children’s services must ensure effective arrangements are in place to monitor, review and improve the quality of care and support provided by the service.  The law requires the review to take place as often as required, or at least every six months. 

On completion of the quality of care review, the responsible individual must prepare a report that includes an assessment of the standard of care and support provided and make recommendations for the improvement of the service. 

This guidance includes

• Advice on how to carry out an effective quality of care review.
• A template for completing the report that service providers may wish to follow.  This is also available as a standalone template if required.
