Care Quality Commission reports
Gambling harms treatment services are not regulated under the Health and Social Care Act 2008. As a result, the CQC does not have the legal authority to register these services, pursue enforcement, or provide an overall rating following assessments.
However, CQC does assess services who are members of the NGSN to support quality improvement. This work is carried out as a Service Level Agreement with the Gambling Commission and GambleAware under Paragraph 9 of Schedule 4 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008, which allows CQC to offer advice or assistance to other public authorities.
While CQC’s powers in this area are limited, its assessments help ascertain that services are providing safe, effective, caring, responsive and well led care whilst meeting the needs of people seeking support for gambling-related harms. If appropriate, CQC will provide recommendations in order to meet this need. For further information on how CQC inspect gambling harms treatment services please visit the CQC website.
