National and regional quality boards
National quality board
CSCI has set up the national quality board to involve people who
use services as well as people who commission and provide services
so that they can make sure we produce high quality work.
In particular, the board will give an external view to ensure
that:
- quality ratings are fair, accurate and based on sound
evidence
- guidance, policies and procedures are consistently applied
- practice is consistent and of a high standard
- people who use regulated services enjoy positive outcomes
The board will also have a role in monitoring the work of the
quality rating review service.
Regional quality boards
We have also established regional quality boards in each of our
regions:
- Eastern London
- North Eastern
- North West
- South East
- South West
- West Midlands
The regional boards carry out similar work to that of the
national board, as well as focussing on:
- quality of inspection reports
- quality rating system as it is applied locally
The regional quality boards are independent of the national
quality board. However, they will provide reports so the national
board can gain a country-wide perspective of the quality of our
work.
