CQC Mock Inspection
Mock inspections are used by providers who want to know what to expect from a CQC inspection and areas they can improve upon before they have their inspection.
It is vital that your team understand the CQC Key Lines of Enquiry. As former CCQ Inspectors, we are ideally placed to assess whether your facility is:
- Safe, Effective
- Caring
- Responsive and Well-Led
Once we’ve completed our mock inspection we will provide a CQC Style report with an action plan of all the areas for the team to work on and ensure a successful CQC inspection.

Policy Management
Strong governance is the backbone of outstanding healthcare provision. We help you build robust structures and processes.
- At COMI, we pride ourselves on writing all your policies from scratch and bespoke for YOU and your team. We don’t sell generic policy packages. This ensures that when a CQC inspector picks up your policies, they know that are of high quality in line with regulatory standards.

Complaints Adjudication
Our expert team can provide you with complaints adjudication when your patient complaint reaches stage 3. In this offering, we will examine all of the documents associated with the complaint and draw of relevant expert support if required to reach a conclusion. We then issue a ‘decision letter’ to help conclude your patient complaint.
