Care Quality Commission heaps more pressure on NHS managers The revelation that a group of campaigners has made a complaint against more than 20 managers to the Care Quality Commission (CQC) under the “fit and proper persons” test opens up a new reputational battlefront for health managers. According to the Health Service Journal and Nursing Times, the complaints are aimed at current and former chief executives, medical directors, senior executives, and a former nursing director. The fit and proper person test was introduced under the Health and Social Care Act 2008. While much of it revolves around predictable criteria such as bankruptcy and criminality, it is an amendment in 2014 to the regulations implementing the act – regulation 5 – which exposes senior managers to many risks. theguardian/healthcare-network/2015/jan/22/care-quality-commission-pressure-nhs-managers
