Customer Feedback
Driving Up Quality Initiative
This is a voluntary initiative, which sets standards we work to:
- It was developed as a result of the Winterbourne View abuse tragedy to ensure it never happens again
- Signing up to it is a commitment to driving up quality in services for people with learning disabilities that goes beyond the minimum standards
- Providers need to make a commitment to listen to the people they support and support them to build lives that have meaning for them
- It is based on the 5 Core areas of the Care Quality Commission:
- Is it safe?
- Is it effective?
- Is it caring?
- Is it responsive to people’s needs?
- Is it well led?
With all of the above in place, we aspire not only to meet these standards, but to continuously improve even further, for the benefit of our members.
