Services for groups of Care Homes and AgenciesThe use of the UKQCS Care Quality Management System has been proved to be particularly useful for groups of care providers. The benefits can include: - Standardisation of practice throughout the group, making senior management oversight of individual establishments easier and more consistent
- Assurance that each establishment's systems are fully complaint with the requirements of CSCI and other legislation, by eliminating the need for each establishment to develop its own systems
- Enhanced risk management; if the ability and authority of each establishment to develop unauthorised systems is controlled, overall risk management by the organisation is enhanced.
- The organisation can eliminate the need for the allocation of resources to the development, and more importantly the updating, of the management system. UKQCS acts as your agent in this respect
- The costs of systems development and updating from UKQCS is a fixed quantity, eliminating the tendency for such matters to either fail to be attended to, or eat up unallocated resource
- The UKQCS advice and support service which accompanies the package can relieve the burden of providing day to day support for establishment managers by the central organisation, reducing costs, eliminating bottlenecks, while supporting managers.
- Group implementation, where establishment managers are brought together to map and carry out the system implementation has been proved to be very beneficial for morale and overall enthusiasm of both managers and staff, and a great team building tool.
Due to the economies of scale which UKQCS can achieve while working with groups, the costs for additional establishments over and above the first are very considerably reduced. |
