A meeting will normally be held between the lead inspector and our representative(s) and our partners four days after notification of the inspection. We will determine who is present at the meeting.
The purpose of the meeting is to provide further information about the scope of the inspection, agree practical arrangements, including survey arrangements, initial interviews and scrutiny of case files with appropriate workers, and provide other clarification as necessary.
It will also provide opportunity for inspectors to discuss any issues or concerns which have arisen from the pre-inspection reading and to discuss how service users and their families can be directly engaged in the inspection.
