Two Different Representative Bodies within my area of work are CQC Care Quality Commission HSE Health and Safety Executive Describe the Role of the Two Representative Bodies as above. CQC is a regulator for all health and social care services in England. Their job is to make sure that throughout England compulsory safety standards set out by government standards or rules about care are met in all areas including respect and dignity, hygiene, infection procedures. They provide reliable independent information based on its inspections. They can also advise people what to expect and offer reassurance that their care will be met with proper standards.
The Care Quality Commission regulates, inspects and reviews all adult social care services in the public, private and voluntary sectors in England. The Essential Standards for Quality and Safety – From 1 October 2010, every health and adult social care service in England is legally responsible for making sure it meets new essential standards of quality and safety. Providers must show that they are meeting essential standards as part of the new registration system which focusses on people rather than policies, on outcomes rather than systems. The essential standards relate to important aspects of care such as involvement and information for people, personalised care and treatment (bespoke to the individual), safety and safeguarding. The CQC continuously monitor compliance with essential standards as part of a more dynamic, responsive, robust system of regulation accompanied by new enforcement
