CQC Inspection Questionnaire
Please answer the following questions as honestly/openly as possible. We want to ensure that the sessions meet the needs of those attending so need to have a clear idea of your current needs as a Practice Manager or CQC Lead and for your practice overall. Your individual response will only be used to inform the content of the webinars and will not be shared on an individual basis with Humberside LMCs, CQC or any other organisation.

How do you, other managers and partners at your practice feel if/when your CQC inspection date is announced?
*
It's not something we love but we feel confident we are in a good position, without a huge amount of work, to be ready for an inspection whenever it is announced
A bit anxious - we know we will get everything ready to be in a good position once the inspection starts but we know it will be quite a lot of work leading up to the inspection date
Quite stressed - we will have a lot to find/arrange/create and I'm not looking forward to the date as there will be a huge amount to do and I think we will struggle to get it all done
Extremely stressed - We are not at all ready for an inspection and the amount of work will be overwhelming to get us in a position for an inspection
Do you / senior management / partnership team have clear accountability and ownership for all areas of CQC compliance? (including medicines management, training, safeguarding, IPC, Health and Safety, Finance, Governance, IT, Compliance (CQC), Patient services and complaints)
*
Yes absolutely. Roles and accountability is very clear and the leadership team work well together to oversee the CQC areas not only when an inspection is announced but all year round
Yes to some extent - we do make sure everything is covered but this is usually only a focus when the inspection date is announced
Hmm - its all left to one person to oversee and there is little joint ownership for CQC compliance across the leadership team/partners
This does feel like a gap at the moment
How well do you think your CLINICAL staff understand the requirements and expectations CQC will be assessing and inspecting?
*
Outstanding understanding of the requirements and expectations of CQC
Good understanding of the requirements and expectations of CQC
Understanding of the requirements and expectations of CQC requires improvement
Inadequate understanding of the requirements and expectations of CQC
How well do you think your NON-CLINICAL staff understand the requirements and expectations CQC will be assessing and inspecting?
*
Outstanding understanding of the requirements and expectations of CQC
Good understanding of the requirements and expectations of CQC
Understanding of the requirements and expectations of CQC requires improvement
Inadequate understanding of the requirements and expectations of CQC
Do you have a CQC annual plan for your practice?
*
Yes - we have an annual plan that covers all the key activities and actions we need to track and complete to be CQC ready as much as we can be all year round
We create a CQC action plan when the date is announced to make sure everything is ready when the inspection date comes round
We don't have a CQC plan
Do you have processes in place to maintain your CQC requirements all year round?
*
Yes - we have robust processes in place followed year-round that I know mean we are on track to deliver against all CQC requirements
Yes - we have some processes in place but I think there is still more we could do to ensure year-round requirements are met
We don't have processes in place that are followed year-round and it tends to feel like a scramble when the inspection is announced
Do you consider the practice has robust processes for CQC documentation management and audits?
*
Yes completely - we know where to find all documents and capture all audit and related information required by CQC
Yes to some extent - we have a number of robust processes that are usually followed and can usually find all the information we need to access
We sometimes struggle to locate files and sometimes our processes are a bit flawed or aren't followed which causes gaps in documentation
Not at all - this is an area that I think needs a fair bit of work to improve at the practice
How confident are you that the CQC documentation and audits have been reviewed within the required timescales?
*
Very confident
Confident
Fairly confident
Not confident at all
Does your practice have an auditable system for document management, evidence and audits around CQC requirements? (Covering complaints, SEAs, near misses, team feedback, stakeholder feedback (ICS/CQC), patient feedback)
*
Yes - we have a very easy to navigate electronic system(s) where we capture all relevant documentation
Yes to some extent - we do capture most things on a system but it is still sometimes challenging to find things or there are gaps
No - we don't use an electronic system - we use spreadsheets to track and paper documents
If you were to ask your staff how confident they felt in their knowledge of a CQC area such as safeguarding, how do you think they would score themselves on the below:
*
All staff would confidently know this
Most staff would confidently know this
Some staff would confidently know this
I'm not sure many staff would be clear about this
Who are the Leads and what are their roles within the Safeguarding Area for the practice?
Do you understand and would you be able to access the processes and documentation required for Safeguarding policies and procedures for the practice?
What tool is used within the practice to manage safeguarding compliance
*
Paper Folders
Spreadsheet
Patients Clinical Records
Safeguarding Meetings / Minutes
Don't know

*
Outstanding
Good
Requires Improvement
Inadequate
Well Led
Safe
Caring
Responsive
Effective
