Service Health Check

A quick, expert review of your service’s compliance position — before CQC does it for you.

What is a service health check?

A service health check is a light-touch, expert-led compliance review designed to give you a clear snapshot of your care service’s strengths, risks, and priorities - without the cost or commitment of a full audit.

It’s ideal for spotting early issues, building confidence in your management team, and making sure nothing is missed before an inspection or major change.
