    Default Care Commission Q & A

    I've attached some notes from a q & a session we had with our local CCO's.

    Hope some of you find it useful

    thanks..have saved it down onto my drive to have a proper read..
    the only thing is that each CCO can be quite different...but overall you would hope they all agree on important things...

    Thank you!

    I am at the early stages of writing just now.

    The main problem I have is getting information on the standards (updates since the 2005 version) and any other new stuff that's come through.

    I don't want to be out of date or not have the facts right.

    I do have a couple of moles though who have already been very helpful!

    Thank you George!

    Yes I have that one...

    I know there are new bits to add about fire safety and smoke alarms wired to every floor...

    I have found new information about healthy eating...

    I am aware that the focus for inspections is partnership with parents so I can waffle on about that...

    I know Scottish childminders now need to wear disposable aprons and gloves...

    Is there anything else guys please??
