Introduction to registration

From April 2010, the regulation of health and adult social care will change. Legislation is bringing in a new registration system that applies to all regulated health and adult social care services.

The CQC website is the definitive source of information on the new registration system and will be regularly updated. We do not endorse any commercial organisations to distribute information or to run training courses on registration.
