What Does a Good Quality Monitoring System Look Like in Social Care?
A robust monitoring system isn’t just about compliance — it’s about accountability, learning and improvement. If your system is weak or vague in your tender, it will raise red flags.
🔍 What Commissioners Want to See
Clear, proactive systems that flag issues before they escalate. For example:
- Regular internal audits against CQC Key Lines of Enquiry (KLOEs)
- Monitoring service delivery, not just paperwork
- Feedback mechanisms for staff, people using services, and families
📊 It’s About More Than Data
Don’t just say “we collect data.” Say what you do with it:
- Who reviews the data and how often
- How trends are spotted and acted on
- What learning has resulted from recent reviews
🛠️ Your System, Your Voice
Every provider’s system will differ — but what matters is showing:
- It's structured and consistent
- Everyone knows their role in it
- It leads to demonstrable improvements
