The way domiciliary care services are regulated will change when the Health and Social Care Act 2008 comes into force in 2010. If you are currently registered, or are thinking about registering your service, you will need to make sure that you know about these changes and how they will affect your business. I have 20 years experience of social care regulation and my last post was Head of Methodology and Policy at CSCI. Contact me to discuss how I can help you understand these changes and prepare you and your staff for registration.
