RCGP Peer Support Programme

As part of a programme of work with NHS England, the RCGP has developed a peer support programme to help Practices that have been put into ‘special measures’ following CQC inspection.

The programme will be available to all practices placed in special measures by the CQC with the aim of bringing them up to scratch over the six month period before CQC re-inspection.  Practices that choose to work with the RCGP will work with a team of expert advisers, including GPs and Practice Managers to draw up realistic improvement and budget plans based on site visits.
