Family-run home, twenty residents, registered manager doing the compliance themselves. The whole catalogue seeded on day one, with care-home defaults already set.
CQC-Ready Compliance for Care Home Groups.
CQC's Fundamental Standards turn estates work into clinical evidence. Regulation 15 on premises and equipment, Regulation 12 on safe care — the inspector wants the certificate, the date, the action plan, and the audit trail in the same five minutes. Proprietas keeps them all in the same place.
Every Regime You Carry, in One Place.
The statutory burden specific to this sector — tracked, scheduled, audit-trailed. Drop a certificate, watch the expiry clock, hand a single PDF to the inspector.
Fire Risk Assessment — High Risk Tier
Sleeping accommodation puts care homes in the FSO 2005 highest risk tier. Annual reassessment plus six-monthly review. Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans tracked per resident category — the FRA is not just a building document any more.
L8 Legionella — Vulnerable Setting Schedule
Care homes are HSG274 high-risk: vulnerable residents, often-stagnant outlets, communal showers. Monthly temperatures, two-yearly risk review, sampling regime. Outlets flushed weekly, recorded. We track every tap.
LOLER on Hoists, Slings, Stairlifts
Six-monthly thorough examination per LOLER 1998. Every hoist, every passenger lift, every assisted bath. Out-of-date hoists are the single most common care-home enforcement notice — we surface them 30 days early, not 30 days late.
Gas Safety (CP12) — Commercial Catering
Annual CP12 across boilers, kitchen gas, and any LPG installations. Gas Safe number validated against the live register. Catering kitchen sign-off separate from heating sign-off — the certificates often need different qualifications.
Fixed-Wiring EICR (BS 7671)
Five-yearly periodic inspection. Nurse-call wiring, dementia-unit door magnets, kitchen circuits — domestic-style EICRs miss these. Use a contractor with the right NICEIC scope, verified at upload time.
Asbestos Management Plan
CAR 2012. Many older care homes retain ACMs in roof voids, boiler-room insulation, vinyl floor tiles. Survey register, re-inspection schedule, contractor competence checked before any planned works.
Fire Alarm & Emergency Lighting
BS 5839-1 for the alarm, BS 5266 for emergency lighting. Weekly call-point test, monthly function test, six-monthly engineer service for L1-rated systems (most care homes are L1).
Infection Prevention Adjacencies
Not a single regime but a constellation: water hygiene, ventilation cleanliness, equipment decontamination, surface materials. We track every cert that crosses IPC and the inspector's checklist at once.
Where Proprietas Fits.
A few common shapes we see in this sector. The platform flexes for each — same product, same price, different scoping.
Eight to twenty homes across a region. Operations manager runs estates across the cluster. CQC inspection cycles overlap — same audit-pack format works for every visit.
50+ homes, head-office estates team, regional managers. Trust-style hierarchy with per-region scoping and roll-up reporting. PFI handovers and acquisitions absorbed cleanly.
CQC-regulated supported-living premises don't escape the regimes. Different tenancy model, same fire safety expectations. Per-property splits keep the picture honest.
