Rejected petition THE CARE QUALITY COMMISION MUST CHANGE THE WAY CARE HOMES ARE MONITORED, RUN AND VETTED

More details

This petition is here to urge the CQC to increase the frequency in which it monitors the standards of care that residents are receiving in homes for the elderley and vulnerable. We beleive thorough inspections should be made on a monthly basis, impartial befrienders should be in and around the homes every week to liaise with residents and some serious alterations should be made in how care homes recruit and monitor staff.
