Professor Sir Mike Richards, the new Chief Inspector of Hospitals at the Care Quality Commission (CQC), is bringing in radical changes to the way they inspect hospitals and is introducing the changes to 18 NHS trusts by the end of next month.

CQC will carry out a mixture of announced and unannounced inspections of hospitals.

Professor Sir Mike Richards is asking for clinicians, NHS professionals and members of the public to join his hospital inspection teams.

The campaign is called Join Mike’s Inspection Army. For more information, click here.
