Yes. We provide mock inspections, audits and ongoing compliance support for existing providers. The length of the inspection depends on the size and complexity of your organisation. We’ll discuss your service during your initial consultation and recommend the most appropriate approach.

Yes. Our inspections are aligned with the current CQC Single Assessment Framework and reflect the latest inspection approach, helping your organisation prepare for what inspectors are looking for today.

CQC aims to process an application within 10–12 weeks from submission; however, timelines can vary depending on sector complexity and the quality of the application.

In our experience, over half of applications extend beyond 10 weeks. Getting it right first time is therefore critical. Most of our clients achieve registration within 10–16 weeks from submission. Once you’ve been approved, you’ll be able to access the CQC provider portal.

We support reapplications. We’ll review your previous submission, identify exactly what went wrong, rebuild the parts that need rebuilding, and manage the resubmission. It’s more cost-effective to fix a rejection properly than to let the sunk costs keep climbing.

You receive a fixed price for your CQC registration support based on the agreed scope, so everything is clear from the start. We prepare and manage your application within that scope. However, CQC may request additional information or documentation that falls outside the agreed work, which would be handled separately if required.

One dedicated healthcare consultant, from your first call to CQC approval. Every DKJ consultant has real experience inside the healthcare sector, not just compliance theory.

No consultant can guarantee CQC approval because the final decision is CQC’s. What we can commit to is telling you honestly before you apply whether you’re ready, and standing with you through every query CQC raises. Our 97% first-time approval rate is built on that principle.
