 Today we have launched an ambitious new strategy based on extensive consultation with the public, providers of health and social care services, charities and partner organisations. CQC's purpose of ensuring high-quality, safe care won't change, but how it works to achieve this will. The new strategy is set out under four themes: - People and communities: regulation that is driven by people's needs and experiences, focusing on what is important to them as they access, use and move between services.
- Smarter regulation: a more dynamic and flexible approach that provides up-to-date and high-quality information and ratings, easier ways of working with CQC, and a more proportionate regulatory response.
- Safety through learning: an unremitting focus on safety, requiring a culture across health and care that enables people to speak up and in this way share learning and improvement opportunities.
- Accelerating improvement: encouraging health and care services, and local systems, to access support to help improve the quality of care where it's needed most.
Running through each of these themes are two core ambitions: - Assessing local systems: giving the public independent assurance about the quality of care in their area
- Tackling inequalities in health and care: pushing for equality of access, experiences and outcomes from services.
Join the conversation on social media using #CQCStrategy  In his latest blog, our Chief Executive Officer Ian Trenholm shares his thoughts on our new strategy, how it reflects the views of health & social care providers and professionals, the public and others. And highlights the work we will be doing in the first year of our strategy.  In the latest episode of our podcast series we talk about the ambitions for our new strategy and how our regulatory approach will change. We hear from Director of Engagement, Chris Day and Directors of Policy & Strategy, Sarah Bickerstaffe and Amanda Hutchinson who share their reflections on what our new strategy will deliver.  You can watch our strategy launch event that took place on the 27th May. This webinar is led by our CEO, Ian Trenholm, Chair Peter Wyman and other members of our executive team. They discuss our strategy, the outcomes it will achieve and how we'll start to deliver it.  From June there will be a programme of opportunities to help us co-produce how we'll implement our strategy. If you would like to get involved with this work, sign up to our digital engagement platform and look out for more information in our bulletins. You can also feedback your thoughts on our new strategy right now.  |
