Frequently asked questions
Do you guarantee CQC registration?
No. CQC is an independent regulator and makes its own registration decisions. No consultancy can legitimately guarantee that CQC will approve an application. Our responsibility is to help you prepare your business, documentation, proposed Registered Manager and application professionally.
Do I need a Registered Manager?
Whether a Registered Manager is required depends upon the regulated activity, provider structure and circumstances of the registration. We can assess your proposed service as part of the initial consultation.
Can you prepare my Registered Manager?
Yes. We provide structured preparation covering regulatory knowledge, leadership, governance, safeguarding, quality assurance, operational management and interview preparation.
Do you provide policies and procedures?
Yes. Comprehensive policy and procedure preparation can form part of your package.
Can you complete the application for us?
We can support the preparation and completion of the application using information supplied and verified by the applicant. The provider and proposed Registered Manager remain responsible for ensuring that information submitted to CQC is accurate.
Can you design our website?
Yes. Website development and digital business setup are available as part of our comprehensive package or as separate services.
Can you create our social media pages?
Yes. We can help establish a professional business presence across appropriate social media platforms and prepare the initial branding and business information.
What if I have already started the process?
That's fine — we can conduct a gap analysis, review what you already have and concentrate our work on the outstanding requirements.
How long does CQC registration take?
Timescales can vary considerably depending upon the type of application, its completeness, CQC's assessment process and whether additional information is required. We therefore do not promise a fixed CQC approval date.
Can you help us after registration?
Yes. Depending on your requirements, further support can include business development, tendering, private-client strategy, back-office support, compliance, recruitment administration and marketing.
