Описание: What really happens on a CQC inspection day? In this in-depth case study, Dental Compliance Consultant Sofia Mendes takes you behind the scenes of a real CQC inspection, breaking down the process step by step and explaining what inspectors actually look for in a dental practice.

From the moment inspectors arrive, Sofia explains how preparation, calm leadership, and embedded systems set the tone for a smooth inspection. You’ll gain insight into how inspections are structured, including the role of the clinical advisor, how documentation is reviewed, and how inspectors assess both clinical standards and day-to-day practice.
