About this book
Most people preparing for their CQC interview ask the same question: what will they ask me? The answer is reassuring. The interview is not a memory test. CQC wants to know that you understand the service you are about to run, and that people will be safe in your care.
This guide explains what the interview is for, how to prepare, and how to answer using your own documents and experience. It covers the registered manager and nominated individual interviews for home care and supported living services in England, with model answers and a 30 day practice plan.
What you will learn
- What happens from your interview invitation to the day itself
- How to answer: say what you do, then prove it with your own examples
- Likely questions on safe, effective, caring, responsive and well led
- A full chapter on the nominated individual interview
- Extra guidance for supported living, learning disability and autism services
- A 30 day practice plan and the 50 questions to practise first
