Dentists & The CQC

April 2010 – don’t risk failing to register

All dental practices have to register with the CQC by April of this year – and in order to register you have to satisfy the CQC that you meet their standards for premises, working practices and record keeping. The CQC has the power to stop healthcare providers operating if registration is not achieved.

Most dentists will already be meeting the required standards for infection control – but many will not. Getting to grips with the CQC documentation can be a problem, and to help you we are offering a range of services and consultancy, from a fixed price review to detailed implementation and training.

Now, it's unlikely that your policies and procedures will need completely rewriting - so we offer a flexible hourly rate, and only charge for the areas that need bringing up to scratch. There's no need to be faced with a bill of several thousands of pounds for completely new paperwork, when we can fix your existing systems for a much smaller sum.

How DC Solutions can help you

We offer a full review of your current operations to identify any gaps or shortcomings - and then work with you to rectify any deficiencies, and get you up to the required standards. We agree prices before commencement of any work, and to keep costs down we do the work remotely, via emails and post. If there is a need for a site visit, we do have to make a small charge to cover travel costs incurred.
