“If you’re looking for some straight-talking CQC advice from someone who actually knows what they’re talking about… look no further!
Caroline is amazing at cutting to the reality of what is going on in your service and suggesting how to improve it!
My company Cavalry Healthcare was able to evidence that we are ‘exceptionally caring’ and ‘exceptionally responsive’ on our first CQC report, obtaining good in all 5 areas and setting us up perfectly to getting an outstanding in our second inspection! 🤞
CQC inspections can be stressful no matter how incredible your service is- Caroline is a fabulous ally to have working alongside you! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
