Tell the CQC about your recent experience of accessing health and care services
The Care Quality Commission (CQC), who regulate health and care services in England, are running a campaign with Carers UK called Tell Us About Your Care.
The purpose of the campaign is to encourage unpaid carers to share their experiences of interacting with local health and care services, such as care homes, hospitals, or respite care services, with the CQC.
The CQC is the government agency responsible for maintaining standards in the health and social care sector. They inspect different organisations and have certain powers that allow them to sanction or report these organisations if the services they are providing care that is below the level expected of them.
By following the link provided below, you can have your voice heard by the CQC and tell them about your experiences of accessing health and care services, allowing them to quickly recognise where things need to improve, or where there is an example of good practice.
