Self-audit Safe 5A: Covid-19 Infection Control (Care Homes) Q5 — Testing
Q5. Is there adequate access and take up of testing for staff and people using services?
Part 1: The Inspection Approach
The Key Lines of Enquiry (KLOE) are the tools which inspectors use to assess compliance with the corresponding regulations, and usually to award a quality rating. CQC has developed a supplementary set of KLOE to look at how well care homes are carrying out infection prevention and control (IPC) measures during the Covid-19 outbreak. There are eight key questions each with a number of prompts.
The following framework provides a method for carrying out a self-audit against the Covid-19 KLOE Q5.
