East Midlands care, inspection-ready.
Your care is good. Proving it shouldn’t take a frantic week. For independent adult-social-care providers across the East Midlands, we make the care systems you already run, Nourish, Birdie, Log my Care, Person Centred Software, and the spreadsheets around them, produce a clean, inspection-ready trail, and we fill the gaps they leave. We do not sell a rival care-records system, and we never interpret a CQC standard: your registered manager stays the authority on the rule. We make the evidence easy to produce. Nothing that crosses that line.
For independent providers across the East Midlands, the single-site and small-group end, not NHS Trusts and not the national chains.

Well-led is the
most-failed domain
across the East Midlands.
Across 2,863 adult social care providers in the East Midlands, 411 of the 2,245 with a rating are Requires Improvement or Inadequate, and the most-failed CQC domain is Well-led (23%). The East Midlands is home turf, our base is in Nottingham, so this is the region where a same-day on-site is the default. Well-led and Safe run close here.
Aggregate figures only. Never a named provider. Our analysis of public reports, not affiliated with or endorsed by CQC.
Share of East Midlands providers marked down on each domain, from our reading of public reports.
Across the East Midlands, Well-led and Safe sit close together, so the evidence load is split between the audit-and-oversight trail and the medicines-and-recruitment trail. That isn't a verdict on anyone's care. It means there's more to reconcile across more systems before the proof can be produced on the day. That's a governance-and-evidence gap, not a care one, and it's the one we close. Being based in Nottingham, this is the region we know best and reach most easily. We never tell you what any domain requires of you, your registered manager owns the rule. We make the evidence easy to produce.
“A Well-ledmark-down is almost never a sign the care is bad. It’s a sign the evidence of good care is scattered.”
Make the systems
you already run produce
the proof.
For providers across the East Midlands, the work is the same two things, sized to your service: we make the care system you already run produce a clean, inspection-ready audit trail, and we fill the gaps it leaves with the small pieces it doesn’t cover, oversight dashboards, training and renewal trackers, governance gap-scanners, evidence packs.
We never interpret a CQC standard, and we don’t sell a care-records system or an eMAR. If a provider needs one, that’s a different product from a different company, and we make whichever one you choose produce the evidence. The full boundary lives on the CQC inspection-ready pillar, and the work is delivered through our four delivery pillars.
Residential care homes
Audits, training trails, oversight, and eMAR evidence top the fix list.
Nursing homes
The Well-led and Safe double. Medication and clinical-risk evidence carry the most weight.
Domiciliary / home care
Rota, scheduling, and call-monitoring evidence dominate the fix list.
Supported living
Smaller teams across more sites. Reconciling the evidence is the recurring gap.
Not a guess.
Already built.
A CQC-grade care onboarding automation
We built an automated candidate-onboarding chase for an independent provider that handles the DBS, health, occupational-health, and reasonable-adjustments evidence trail end to end, with a two-track flow that only opens post-offer checks after a conditional offer, to stay inside Equality Act s.60. The manual chasing that used to swallow staff time runs itself, and the evidence trail is assembled as it goes. The same shape of work we now do for providers across the East Midlands: making the evidence the systems already hold easy to produce.
Behind it sits our reading of more than 10,000 public CQC reports, and a track record of the same methodology, sized differently, saving a global aerospace group more than £2M and recovering 14 hours a week per worker at a recruitment operation. See the case files.
Common questions.
- What's distinctive about the evidence gap in the East Midlands?
- The East Midlands is home turf, our base is in Nottingham, so this is the region where a same-day on-site is the default. Well-led and Safe run close here. The honest reframe holds wherever you are: the care is usually good, and the area providers are most often marked down on is Well-led, the governance and oversight domain, which is an evidence problem rather than a care one. We make the systems you already run produce a clean, inspection-ready trail, and we fill the gaps they leave. We never interpret a CQC standard.
- Do you only work with East Midlands care providers?
- Our base is Nottingham, in the East Midlands, and we work with independent adult-social-care providers across England. Most of the work is remote, with a discovery visit when it earns its place, so where you sit in England doesn't change the engagement or the fixed fee. The care work is England-only because CQC regulates England; the free website plan is the one thing we offer UK-wide.
- Do you tell us what CQC requires of us?
- No, never. We won't tell you what a domain requires of you, whether you meet it, or how an inspector will score you. Your registered manager, nominated individual, or compliance lead stays the authority on the rule. What we'll say from our reading of public reports is the aggregate pattern, and that Well-led mark-downs are almost always an evidence-and-oversight gap rather than a care one. We make that evidence easy to produce. We never read the standard for you.
- Do you replace our care-records system?
- No. We build alongside the care system you already run (Nourish, Birdie, Log my Care, or Person Centred Software, and the spreadsheets around it) rather than asking you to migrate off it. We're not a care-records vendor and we never will be. The aim is to make the system you've already paid for produce a clean, inspection-ready trail, and to fill the gaps it leaves. If the right answer is a setting you already pay for, we'll tell you that and stop there.
- What does it cost?
- You get a fixed number before you book a call. We don't bill by the hour and there's no surprise invoice: once we've seen the shape of the evidence gap, we agree a fixed fee for the work. The free website plan (£0 up front, £50 a month) is the one price published on the site; for the operations work the figure depends on the shape of the build, and we'll talk it through on the phone. Costs nothing to chat.
