Continuous oversight, expert analysis, and proactive risk management so you're always ahead of the CQC. Stop spending your weekends doing paperwork. Let us act as your outsourced compliance department.
The CQC doesn't sleep, and neither should your compliance systems. Unlike generic consultants who hand you a 40-page report and leave you to do the work, Keystone Compliance becomes your infrastructure.
We build and maintain your compliance infrastructure in a shared Google Drive environment. Live risk registers, real-time action plans, and inspection prep — all in one place. No new logins. No training. No hassle.
We don't just update documents. We analyse your monthly incident patterns, cross-reference them with current CQC trends, and flag emerging risks before they become actionable offences.
Every month, you receive a branded compliance summary proving exactly where your home stands. We do the data synthesis. You point to the results at board level.
A structured onboarding, a fast-track baseline fix, then continuous expert oversight — month after month.
We audit your current state via a bespoke questionnaire, identify your biggest vulnerabilities, and build your custom compliance portal in a shared, live workspace. Includes a 90-minute roadmap consultation.
We deliver your initial Risk Register and Action Plan framework, immediately resolving your most urgent regulatory gaps. You'll see exactly where you stand before the month is out.
You send us raw data once a month — incident logs, supervision records. We process it, analyse pattern trends, update your live system, and deliver a monthly Executive Summary. Simple.
Here's what care home managers say after their first 90 days with Keystone.
Before Keystone, I was spending every Sunday updating risk registers and chasing action plans. Now I send one email at the end of each month and get back a complete compliance picture. It's genuinely freed up my weekends.
We were Requires Improvement and dreading our re-inspection. Keystone had a full risk register and action plan in place within two weeks. The inspector actually commented on how well-organised our compliance folder was.
I was sceptical about the monthly fee at first, but when you compare it to the cost of a failed inspection or even one consultancy day-rate, it's a no-brainer. And unlike a consultant, they're actually still here every month.
This is what the first 90 days look like for a typical Requires Improvement home that joins on our Standard tier.
We don't use generic templates. We build your compliance system from scratch based on the exact needs, bed count, and rating of your home. Your onboarding includes a deep dive audit, a custom risk register build, and a 90-minute strategic consultation.
Compliance is not a quick fix. We invest heavily in Month 1 to build your systems correctly. The 6-month commitment ensures we have time to deliver the full value of continuous oversight, pattern analysis, and strategic partnership.
That's fantastic — but software requires data entry, and managers hate data entry. Software is a tool. Keystone is the team that operates the core compliance strategy behind that tool. We integrate with your existing systems.
Within your first 30 days, you'll have a live Risk Register, a prioritised Action Plan, and a clear view of your compliance position. Most clients tell us they feel the pressure lift within the first two weeks of onboarding.
