GP's & Clinics
April 2010 – don’t risk failing to register
This April sees a tightening of regulation for healthcare providers. April is the deadline for all GP practices and private clinics to complete registration with the Care Quality Commission – 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.
Some general practitioners will have managers who can look after registration - but for many, getting on top of the CQC documentation can be a problem, particularly when you've got a busy practice to run. Patients come first. So for many clinics and GP practices it makes sense to use a specialist like DC Solutions to look after your CQC registration.
DC Solutions offer a range of services and consultancy, from a fixed price review to detailed implementation and training. We have the experience to put together the registration documentation, examine your operation and recommend practical changes that will ensure compliance.
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.
