Well here’s your opportunity to find out… BBC’s Radio 4 were given exclusive access to accompany one of our social care inspection teams, on a recent unannounced inspection of a care home, so the public can find out exactly what happens when our inspectors come to call.
During the ‘day-in-the-life-of’ style report you will be able to find out about our new style inspections and how members of the public with experience of health and social care – our Experts by Experience play a vital role in our inspections talking to residents, families and friends about their experiences of care, which form a key part of our inspection findings.
David Hastings, a CQC Adult Social Care Inspector who managed the inspection says "The whole day was very intense, but after about an hour I started to relax and actually quite enjoy it! The whole team were brilliant and very supportive and I felt we all did a really thorough and detailed inspection even with Jon following us around all day!"
