EQMS software solutions for CQC Standards Compliance
Qualsys have been helping organisations with regulatory compliance pressure for over 15 years. Our EQMS software is used by a great many NHS Trusts and private care organisations to support compliance with CQC regulations and the demands of adhering to many other legislations and standards. EQMS controls documentation, encourages consistent and reliable processes, reports non-conformities and promotes their resolution - all of which are core elements of the CQC compliance requirements.
With nothing more than a basic PC and web browser you can access current, accurate versions of SOPs, comment on newly uploaded material and ensure tasks are carried out within agreed timescales. The system is web based meaning that multi-sited organisations can instantaneously communicate essential changes to working practices across the business, driving down expensive administrative costs and, most importantly, reducing the risk of any harm to service users and patients.
The public perception of the NHS and Care Providers has been tarnished by recent publicity such as that featured in the BBC’s Panorama programme 'Trust Us, Were an NHS Hospital' aired on 8th March 2010. The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has spent the first year since its inception trying to improve social care provision in England. Its creation of CQC regulations and the drive for universal compliance across both NHS trusts and private care providers is forcing the industry to focus on systems to deliver better, more consistent services to underpin patient safety. And time is running out...each and every provider of services will have to be CQC registered before the end of 2010.

2Care, an operator of care services nationwide, required an electronic quality management solution to reduce the duplication of documentation and speed up communication between themselves and the residential care projects they managed. Since aiding them to achieve ISO9001:2000 certification in 2003 the EQMS application has helped 2Care to manage their documentation and adhere to the ever tightening restrictions put in place by the likes of the CQC.

Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust were similarly looking to introduce an electronic quality management system. One that would aid them in the administrative burden of maintaining certification to an increasing number of legislations. Working closely with the pathology department, EQMS was quickly immersed into standard working practices and is now the 'go-to' application for controlling documentation needed in the management of what is a highly restricted environment.

Bettal Quality Consultants Ltd use the EQMS application at the heart of the quality management system they supply to over 1,400 sites UK wide. A major concern for Albert Cook, Managing Director at Bettal, was that the company was generating a vast volume of documentation in support of its customers’ systems. An increasing range of regulatory pressures, combined with a desire to provide customers with a more individually tailored service, contributed to an ever-increasing library. EQMS was brought in to aid with this administrative burden and ensure the crucial documentation that each one of the care providers needed on a daily basis was up-to-date and available at all times.
