Mandatory Care Worker Courses and The CQC
The CQC
The CQC is the independent regulator of health and social care in England. It provides extensive guidance to help providers to comply with regulations
In terms of staffing, the CQC requires health and social care providers to:
have sufficient numbers of workers who are suitably qualified and competent, with the necessary skills and experience to meet the needs of the individuals receiving support.
provide care staff with support, training, professional development, supervision and appraisals that are necessary for them to carry out their role and responsibilities.
support care staff to obtain further qualifications and provide evidence, where required, to the appropriate regulator to show that they meet the professional standards needed to continue to practice.
The CQC have the powers to take regulatory action such as refusing registration should these elements not be in place or if social care providers fail to provide satisfactory evidence that they will continue to comply.
Our care workers have qualifications ranging from NVQ to a master degree
We ensure all staff are provided with adequate induction and annual refresher training to ensure that they remain up to date with recommended practice and regulatory requirements.
