Safe environments
Supports a clear account of how environmental risks are identified, controlled and followed through across the estate.
Official CQC statementMulti-site care-home groups · property assurance
Make your property-safety evidence clear enough to stand behind.
A fixed-scope review for multi-site care providers. Compliance Plus turns the records already held across five homes into a management-ready assurance view—then provides a clear route to deliver priority work.
Built around existing records. No resident or service-user data required.

Evidence, not inspection theatre
CQC asks for the information providers already hold. The challenge is making it coherent.
CQC may gather evidence on-site or off-site and says it does not want providers creating documents purely for an assessment. The stronger operating position is a property-safety programme that is already clear, current and followed through.

Where the review fits
A focused property-assurance scope—not a claim to cover the whole CQC framework.
The review organises evidence relevant to the agreed property and equipment scope. Care quality, medicines, staffing, safeguarding and CQC’s independent judgment remain outside it.
Regulation 15
Helps organise records relevant to premises and equipment being suitable, maintained and managed against identified risk.
Official CQC guidanceRegulation 17
Provides a management view that can support risk monitoring, action oversight and accurate property-assurance records.
Official CQC guidanceWhat the £750 scope includes
Four outputs leadership can actually use.
We work from the agreed, redacted records your team already holds. Technical validity, site conditions and any required follow-on action remain subject to the relevant competent specialist and agreed scope.

A commercial guarantee with honest limits
The agreed outputs will be complete—or we put them right.
If the agreed property assurance index, 12-month programme, action schedule or management assurance brief is incomplete at handover, we correct it at no charge. If we still cannot provide the agreed outputs from the agreed records, we refund the review fee.
The guarantee covers completion of the four agreed desk-review outputs. It does not guarantee legal compliance, the technical adequacy of third-party records, completion of follow-on actions, a CQC rating or any regulator’s decision.Before you engage
Specific enough to be credible. Bounded enough to be safe.
This is a property-assurance offer for provider-controlled care settings. It strengthens the evidence and operating trail around the agreed estate scope; it does not replace the provider’s governance, competent assessments or legal duties.
Is this a mock CQC inspection?
No. It is a focused review of property-safety evidence and programme control. It does not assess care quality, medicines, staffing, safeguarding, clinical governance or the full CQC framework.
Does the review guarantee a CQC rating?
No. CQC alone determines inspection and assessment outcomes. The review helps leadership organise and evidence the property-safety controls relevant to the agreed scope; it does not promise a rating, approval or legal compliance.
We already have a quality team. Is this still useful?
It can be. The review is designed to give quality, operations and estates leaders one consistent property-assurance view without replacing their governance processes. We agree how the output should fit the reporting route already in use.
What information do you need?
Only the agreed, redacted property records for the five homes. No resident, patient or service-user information is required. We provide a practical request list after the fit call.
Is this suitable for domiciliary-care services?
The fixed offer is designed for provider-controlled residential settings such as care homes. Property responsibilities for domiciliary care are different, so that would need a separate scope rather than being forced into this review.
Can Compliance Plus coordinate the next technical stage?
Yes, where agreed. Compliance Plus can define the next instruction, coordinate appropriately competent specialist input and keep the resulting reports connected to the action schedule. Every assessment, inspection, test or service remains subject to a separate written scope and quotation.

Five homes. Four outputs. One clear property-assurance position.
Tell us how the estate is structured, where the records sit and what leadership needs to see. We will confirm whether the fixed £750 review is the right first scope.
- Fixed £750 review fee
- Seven working days after agreed records are received
- 45-minute management handover included
The review is not a CQC assessment, site inspection, formal certification, legal opinion or guarantee of regulatory compliance. Any technical delivery is agreed separately.
