Helping care providers deliver excellence
As we support many care providers in the UK, we fully understand the ins and outs of your industry.
Whether you manage domiciliary or residential staff, we can help you meet tricky HR and health & safety standards – so you can focus on delivering excellent care.

Health & safety for the care sector
Just like you have a process for managing your finances, health & safety is no different. Reducing risks and hazards should be part of your day-to-day management.
And in the care industry, that’s a full time job. There’s lots of specific standards you need to keep up with, including the guidelines set out by UK care bodies:
- Care Quality Commission (CQC) in England
- Healthcare Inspectorate Wales (HIW) in Wales
- Or IS in Scotland
Along with HSE standards, we adapt our support around the CQC, HIW, and IS guidelines – so you’ll never have to worry about failing a health & safety inspection.
From offering 24/7 health & safety advice to writing your policies, we’ll help you protect your staff and patients. It means you can spend less time on paperwork and more time helping your patients receive the care they deserve.
