CQC's Essential Standards of Safety and Quality

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) registers and monitors hospitals in England. We registered with the CQC in April 2010. The CQC has published the Essential Standards of Quality and Safety against which all NHS Trusts are reviewed at least annually.

To ensure that we are compliant with these standards, we monitor continuously how we are doing against these standards.

Please see the CQC website for the latest reports.
