This is the minimum requirement and additional information is requested as the registration progresses. We will generally submit in excess of 200 documents at this stage each of which must be checked and verified prior to submission.
This information would be requested via CQC Team from the division and / or the manager overseeing the project work at site, it requires estates input along with several other key individuals throughout the Trust depending on requests.
All supporting documentation which is sent in is checked and tagged by CQC Team and forwarded over to Deputy Director of Nursing to check and approve. Once approved the information is uploaded and submitted to CQC.
At this stage there is a lot of communication between CQC Inspectors / Deputy Director of Nursing and CQC Team and under the Scheme of Delegation, the Director of Inspectors provide additional scrutiny. Also if there is an additional element, i.e. Learning Disability the information along with CQC report will be taken to a panel.
