Care Plan Auditing vs. Care Plan Solutions

Published on 7 July 2025 at 13:00

When families search for care plan support, they often encounter two distinct approaches: traditional auditing services that identify problems, and comprehensive solutions that fix them. Understanding this difference could save your family time, money, and frustration.

 

The Traditional Audit-Only Approach - Most care consultancies follow a simple model:

• Review your loved one's care plan

• Identify compliance issues

• Provide a list of problems

• Send an invoice

 

While this approach ticks the 'audit completed' box, it leaves families with more questions than answers.

 

What happens next?

How do you fix the identified issues?

Who advocates for your loved one's specific needs?

 

 The Integrated Care Plan Solution At CarePlan Assurance, we believe auditing without solutions is incomplete. Our integrated approach includes:

• Comprehensive Auditing: CQC-aligned assessments that identify not just compliance gaps, but opportunities for person-centred improvements.

• Solution Implementation: Improved care plans tailored to your loved one's unique needs.

• Family Advocacy: Dedicated family support throughout the process.

• Ongoing Support: Post-audit guidance and CQC inspection support.

 

Why This Matters for North West Families - Families want more than just problem identification—they want solutions, family involvement, ongoing support, and true value for money.

The Hidden Costs of Audit-Only Services

• Additional consultancy charges for solutions

• Delayed improvements and family frustration

• Multiple service providers with conflicting advice

 

Making the Right Choice - Ask if a consultancy provides solutions, family advocacy, ongoing support, and person-centred (CQC-aligned) care. CarePlan Assurance answers 'yes' to all, because we believe in comprehensive solutions.
