Any business falling within the scope of registration must be registered with the relevant regulator, be it the Care Quality Commission, the Care Inspectorate Wales or the Care Inspectorate.
The process of registration can be complicated and lengthy but if a provider prepares itself thoroughly then it should run more smoothly. Our team of specialist lawyers can make sure that this process is as seamless as possible.
Providers of learning disability services are, in particular, faced with registration difficulties given the CQC’s reliance on guidance documents such as ‘Right Support, Right Care, Right Culture’ and imposing restrictions on the number of beds and location, amongst other things.
Ridouts can help you by:
- Establishing which regulated activities/services you will be providing;
- Guiding you through the application process;
- Reviewing your Statement of Purpose;
- Considering any additional guidance that the regulator might require you to rely upon when applying for registration;
- Assisting with the registration of your manager;
- Making sure that all relevant applicants have applied for the relevant enhanced DBS checks;
- Reviewing the completed application before submission;
- Advising in the event of the regulator refusing to register a service.
Outcomes achieved include:
- Successful registration of new services
- Successful registration of services following provider company restructure
