PULSE CHECK !!🚨: In response to a shocking incident where two Filipino nurses were attacked during unrest in Sunderland, the Health Secretary has issued a firm warning: anyone who exhibits racism towards NHS staff will be turned away. The nurses, who were on their way to provide emergency cover, were understandably "terrified" by the attack. Wes Streeting has strongly condemned the "mindless thuggery" that has been spreading across Britain, especially following the recent Southport stabbings. As far-right violence has surged in various towns and cities, the safety of NHS workers has come under threat. Streeting’s message is clear—racism against healthcare staff will not be tolerated, and those responsible will face serious consequences. ------ What do you think? Do you think there could be severe consequences if staff are now able to deny care to service users who use racist language towards them? Should there be more repercussions in place if this does happen? Do you have any experience of racial abuse whilst working in healthcare? 👇🏽 #health #riots #healthcare #nhs #southport #i mmigration #uk #breakingnews #news #update #pulsecheck #bestcarejslimited #care #healthcareworker #racerelations

Cornerstone Care - Urgent Cancellation Order (UCO) - Understanding the Severity and Taking Action This Wednesday, we'll address the most serious type of CQC notice - the Urgent Cancellation Order (UCO). Understanding the UCO: A UCO is a rare but severe order issued by the CQC only in situations where service users are at immediate risk of harm. This could be due to serious safeguarding concerns, inadequate staffing levels, or unsafe living environments. Upon receiving a UCO, a provider's registration will be immediately suspended, and they will be required to take immediate steps to relocate service users to ensure their safety. Responding to a UCO - Seeking Urgent Support: Receiving a UCO is a critical situation that requires immediate action. Cornerstone Care strongly advises seeking legal counsel specialising in healthcare regulations alongside our support. Right to Appeal: While a UCO is a serious order, you still have the right to appeal the decision to an independent tribunal. However, appealing should only be considered if you believe there are substantial grounds to challenge the CQC's findings. Preventing a UCO: Robust Safeguarding: Prioritising robust safeguarding practices is critical. This includes having clear policies and procedures in place, conducting regular risk assessments, and ensuring all staff are trained in safeguarding procedures. Open Communication: Fostering a culture of open communication where staff feel comfortable raising concerns about potential risks or areas where regulations might not be fully met can prevent issues from escalating to a UCO situation. Regular Self-Assessment: Conducting regular internal audits alongside self-assessments can help identify potential problems before they become serious. Seeking Expert Support: Cornerstone Care can help you develop a comprehensive risk management program, implement robust safeguarding procedures, and conduct regular compliance reviews to minimise the risk of encountering a UCO. Remember to seek advice as early as possible to maximise the time availabile to make changes. By prioritising preventative measures and seeking expert guidance, you can significantly reduce the likelihood of facing such a critical situation. Cornerstone Care is here to offer comprehensive support throughout your journey towards complete CQC compliance. #CornerstoneCare #NOP #NOD #UCO #CQC
