How can Care Consults help my service?
We support adult social care providers at every stage: CQC registration, tailored policy packs, ongoing compliance, mock inspections, interview preparation and tender writing. Use one service on its own, or combine several into a single plan with one consultant who knows your business.
How long does CQC registration take?
Plan for roughly three to six months end to end. CQC advises allowing at least ten weeks from submitting your application, and incomplete applications are a common cause of delay — so strong preparation of your statement of purpose, policies and evidence is where time is won. We help you get it right first time.
Do you work with new and existing providers?
Yes. We help founders register and launch new care services, and we help established providers strengthen compliance, prepare for inspection and grow through adult social care tenders.
Can you support us if we're already registered?
Absolutely. We run compliance audits and mock inspections against CQC's five key questions and quality statements, then give you a clear, prioritised action plan — with hands-on help to close every gap.
How do we get started?
Book a free 20-minute readiness call. We'll listen, map out your next steps and send a fixed, no-obligation proposal — usually within two working days.
Is the free call a sales pitch?
No. The 20 minutes are spent on your service - your gaps, your next steps - not on ours. If you want a proposal, ask and we'll send one with a fixed fee. If you don't, you won't be chased.
