Could Outstanding Ratings Become A Thing Of The Past?

Neil Grant of Gordons Partnership takes a look at a concerning element of the new Single Assessment Framework scoring system, and how it is already affecting care providers across the country.

Neil Grant

Partner

Neil has worked as a regulatory lawyer in the health and social care sector for over twenty-five years, developing a national reputation in dealing with complex large-scale enquiries often involving multiple agencies such as the Care Quality Commission, local authorities and the police.

Neil’s approach is both strategic and evidence based, aimed at resolving and improving matters in the interests of service users, providers and other stakeholders.

Although Neil only acts for providers, not regulators, commissioners or service users, his advice is informed by having acted in the past for inspectorates and other public bodies at a very senior level. He also has a particular interest in Regulatory Policy and how it impacts on the sector, not always benevolently.
