See what the review covers

When this review helps

Useful when you need a clearer view of the records and checks used to run the service. It can also help when concerns keep returning or decisions and follow-up are difficult to trace.

The agreed sample

What we can check

We agree the records, people and time period before work starts. The checks below help shape your review; they are not an unlimited review of every record.

Policies and information handling

Review agreed policies, records about personal information, access controls and notification records. GDPR means the General Data Protection Regulation.

Management checks

Look at how managers use audits, action plans and recurring concerns to decide what needs attention.

Disruption and infection risks

Review the agreed plans for keeping the service running during disruption, alongside infection prevention and control records.

Decisions and follow-up

Check whether records explain the decisions made, changes agreed and follow-up completed.

Before we start

We agree the sample, delivery method, timetable and fee in writing. Any correction support, re-audit or ongoing monitoring is clearly listed, with its own limits.

Important to know

The agreed checks do not amount to legal advice or a guarantee of compliance.

The provider remains responsible for care and regulatory decisions. No review guarantees a CQC rating.
