DEFINITION OF HEALTH
W.H.O. IN 1998 famously defined health as a ‘state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease and infirmity’
A holistic view of health takes into account a vast range of interacting factors relating to people and the environment within which they exist.

CQC will work with partner organisations
taking into account the key determinates of
health

Every individual has a life long need for Health and Social
stability
Individuals at times in their lives may have a health and/or social
need that requires a service response

Status - Hierarchy of Instruments
Health and Social Care Act
Establishes the overall system of regulation
Registration Requirements Regulations
What services have to do to become registered
Regulated Activities Regulations
Which services are required to be registered by virtue of what they do
Compliance Guidance
Tells providers about compliance with the regulations
Further Advice for Implementation
Gives providers more detail that they might find helpful when implementing the guidance
Primary legislation
set by Parliament
Secondary legislation
set by Parliament
Prescribed by primary legislation
written by CQC and subject to consultation
No status in legislation
written by CQC

Outcomes based
The regulations mapped to six outcome headings:
Involvement and information
Personalised care, treatment and support
Safeguarding and safety
Suitability of staffing
Quality and management
Suitability of management
Plain English
People focussedOutcome based
11
Why Outcome Focussed?
•Reviews will be focussed on outcomes rather than systems and processes
•By outcomes we mean – the experiences we expect people to have as a result of the care they receive
•This takes our review of care to the person centred level – to understand the daily experience of people who play out their lives for a period of time in receipt of care services either at a domiciliary or residential level.
12
How we check that requirements are met
Declaration
Notifications
Local intelligence
Data
Cross-checking
Validation
What? Who?How?
Compliant/non-compliant
Profile of each
provider
13
Quality and Risk Profile (QRP)
•Gathers all we know – from other regulators, people who use services, whistle blowers etc• Not a rating, ranking or league table• Assesses risk of a provider becoming non-compliant• Inspectors make judgements based on information in the QRP• Prompts front line regulatory activity• Constantly updated, builds over time

QRP – how it will look

Compliance Reviews
Responsive
A responsive review of compliance:
Is triggered when information, or a gap in information raises concern about compliance
Is not a full check of all 16 key quality and safety outcomes
Is targeted to the area(s) of concern
May include a site visit
All findings will be published
Planned
A planned review of compliance:
Is a scheduled check of all the 16 key quality and safety outcomes
Will take place at intervals of between 3 months and 2 years
Will be proportionate, with additional activities focused on gaps on information
May include a site visit
All findings will be published
17
Planned Review
•Starts with a review of all information we currently hold on a provider against the 16 outcomes
•Assess what we know and identify what we do not know
•Contact the provider to gain further information only against those outcomes where information is limited
•A Provider Compliance Assessment may be asked for to fill in the gaps
18
What is a Provider Compliance Assessment?
A PCA is a self assessment tool designed to help providers assess their level of compliance on an ongoing basis
You may collate evidence to demonstrate compliance in a different format but you must submit such evidence within the specified time frame when we ask for it.
The focus is not on systems, processes and policies but what comes directly from people who use services, relating directly to their experience
19
Example Evidence: Outcome 2
Consent to care and treatment
The registered person must have suitable arrangements in place for obtaining, and acting in accordance with, the consent of service users in relation to the care and treatment provided for them.
Regulation 18 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated
Activities) Regulations 2010
20
Outcome 2: Consent to Care and Treatment
What should people who use services experience?
● Where they are able, give valid consent to the examination, care,
treatment and support they receive.
● Understand and know how to change any decisions about
examination, care, treatment and support that has been previously
agreed.
● Can be confident that their human rights are respected and taken into account.
This is because providers who comply with the regulations will:
● Have systems in place to gain and review consent from people who use services, and act on them.
Outcome➜What should people who use services
21
Self assessing outcome 2
What self assessment questions might you ask?
Do you routinely use effective consent procedures?
What are the knowledge and skills of your staff?
How do you know procedures are followed in practice, monitored and reviewed?
What about people who cannot make all or some of the decisions about their care, treatment and aspects of their lives?
What about people who choose to withhold consent?
What about meeting the requirements of the Mental Capacity Act 2005, the Mental Health Act 1983 and Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards
22
How do CQC seesafe and effective care
Effective Care
A person using services receives evidence based care that is appropriate
to their need and achieves a positive outcome - delivered by the right
person, with the right skills and expertise, in the right place, at the right
time, taking into account the views and wishes of the person.
Safety
Safety is freedom for people who use and deliver services from
unnecessary harm or potential harm associated with health or social care
services, where harm can be physical, psychological and/or emotional
23
Drivers for change
Public services in the future:
1. Demographic driven demand – increased demand for public services because of ageing population.
2. Shifting identities – individuals are geographically more mobile and create new identities and communities across neighbourhood, local and national levels
3. Meeting diverse demands – increasingly diverse demands make it difficult to find consensus on some policy areas, especially where there are fundamental differences in value and priorities between sections of society. A ‘one size fits all’ approach is unlikely to suffice.
24
Drivers for change
5. Technology – a driver of change, a solution and as a problem, technology is changing the way we live, work and interact with each other in fundamental ways. This has implications both for the types of public services that will be needed and the ways that they are delivered.
6. Rising citizen expectations – expect more from private sector services, demanding service standards that meet the best equitously across the country.
7. Economic Climate – a testing climate of economic constraints
25
Challenges going forward
•Change! Change! Change! Change!
•Change is the only constant.
•BUT…………………..

Challenges present opportunity
Opportunityis NOWHERE
Opportunity is now Here

Quality
Quality is never an accident, it is a result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skilful execution. William A Foster
Quality is not an act, its is a habit. Aristotle
Quality means doing it right when no-one is looking. Henry Ford
28
Final Thoughts
Quality, Safe, Personalised health and social care must be a way of thinking and not a discrete task
whatever the prevailing economic or political climate

Thank you for your attention
“Here is Edward Bear,coming
downstairs now, bump, bump, bump,
on the back of his head, behind
Christopher Robin. It is, as far as
he knows, the only way of coming
downstairs, but sometimes he feels
that there really is another way, if only
he could stop bumping for a moment
and think of it”
