CQC Accreditation
Ocean Recovery are regularly inspected by the CQC (Care Quality Commission) to ensure that we are providing the best level of care.What Is The CQC?
An independent regulator of health and social care services in England, the Care Quality Commission (CQC) check health and safety procedures, rate the services provided by social care facilities and review treatment programmes to ensure that residents receive adequate care in line with government regulation.
The CQC registers, monitors, and inspects health services such as our rehab clinic to rate the service and ensure that vulnerable people who are receiving care are protected. They use information provided by patients, the provider, the public and other organisations to make judgements on quality of care.
The inspectors look to check:
- Is the service safe?
- Is the service effective?
- Is the service caring?
- Is the service responsive?
- Is the service well-led (managers)?
