Adult Social Care

Providers are frustrated, assessments are inconsistent, and even inspectors are struggling.

The latest Care Providers Alliance report reveals serious issues with the CQC Single Assessment Framework, from registration delays to technology failures and a lack of clear guidance. With over 1,200 survey responses and 100+ providers speaking out, the message is clear: the system isn’t working.

In this episode of The Care Social, our experts Barry Price and Lindsay Rees unpack the biggest concerns raised in the report—and what providers should do next.

  • Why providers feel left in limbo
  • The call to reintroduce named inspectors for consistency
  • How technology failures are making compliance even harder
  • What CQC is saying—and will they act fast enough?
