Hands-On Support, Not Just Advice

MyCareAudit's advisory services are delivered by Sheref Ergun — founder of CQC Compliance Services Ltd and an independent health and social care advisor with over two decades of frontline experience. Whether you're registering a new service, preparing for inspection, or overhauling your policies, you get practical, tailored support rooted in real-world care sector knowledge.

CQC & Ofsted Registration Support

From concept to registration — we guide you through every step

Registering with CQC or Ofsted can be daunting. The application process is detailed, the fit person interviews are rigorous, and a single gap can delay your registration by months. We provide end-to-end support to get you registered first time.

Ideal For

New providers, existing providers adding locations, managers preparing for Fit Person Interviews, or organisations transitioning between regulatory bodies.

What's Included

Full application review and preparation
Statement of Purpose drafting and review
Fit Person Interview preparation and coaching
Registered Manager support and DBS guidance
Location suitability assessment
Policies, procedures and documentation pack
Pre-registration compliance audit
Post-registration follow-up support

Mock CQC Inspections

Know exactly where you stand before the real thing

Our mock inspections replicate the CQC inspection methodology as closely as possible — from the initial information request through to observations, staff interviews, and a full written report with ratings. You get an honest, independent view of your service with clear actions to improve.

Ideal For

Providers expecting an inspection, services that have received a Requires Improvement rating, new managers wanting a baseline assessment, or organisations preparing for re-inspection.

What's Included

Pre-inspection information request (mirroring CQC process)
Full on-site or remote inspection visit
Staff interviews and observation of practice
Review of care records, MARs, and risk assessments
Written report with indicative CQC-style ratings
Domain-by-domain analysis (Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, Well-Led)
Prioritised action plan with regulatory references
Follow-up consultation to review progress

Policies & Procedures

Bespoke policy packs tailored to your service type and size

Generic, off-the-shelf policies won't cut it at inspection. CQC and Ofsted expect policies that reflect your actual service, your client group, and your operational reality. We write bespoke policy packs from scratch or review and update your existing set to ensure full regulatory compliance.

Ideal For

Providers using outdated or generic policies, new services needing a complete policy set, organisations that have received policy-related actions from CQC or Ofsted.

What's Included

Full policy audit against CQC/Ofsted requirements
Bespoke policy writing tailored to your service type
Review and update of existing policy sets
Service-user-specific policies (e.g. DoLS, MCA, challenging behaviour)
Staff handbooks and codes of conduct
Safeguarding policies aligned to local authority requirements
Medication management policies and MARs guidance
Annual review schedule and version control

Why Choose an Independent Advisor?

Unlike large consultancy firms, you work directly with the advisor — no juniors, no handoffs. Every recommendation is grounded in real inspection experience and current regulatory knowledge.

No Conflicts of Interest

Fully independent — not tied to any care group, local authority, or regulatory body. Honest, objective assessments every time.

Direct Access

You speak directly to your advisor — not a receptionist or account manager. Fast, responsive, and personal.

All Service Types

Experienced across care homes, supported living, domiciliary care, children's homes, and supported accommodation (16–18).

Current Regulatory Knowledge

Up to date with CQC's Single Assessment Framework, Ofsted SCCIF, and the Supported Accommodation Regulations 2023.

20+ Years Sector Experience

Not a classroom theorist — real-world experience managing, auditing, and improving care services across England.

Ongoing Support

Advisory doesn't end with a report. Continued support via phone, email, and follow-up visits to ensure lasting improvement.
