Welcome to Care Quality Ecosystems
Organisational Background and Purpose
Care Quality Ecosystems (CQE) was established to support residential care providers in addressing systemic workforce risks that are known to impact staff wellbeing, care quality, safeguarding, regulatory compliance and organisational sustainability.
Founded in 2015 by a multidisciplinary team of experienced care leaders, psychologists and specialist computer professionals, CQE was developed in response to observed limitations in traditional staffing controls and retrospective compliance measures. The founding objective was to create an evidence-informed, practical system that could support earlier identification of staffing-related risks and cultural instability within care environments.
Following research and field testing within operational care settings, an adoptable application was developed and refined. With further development and investment support, the system was scaled and made available to the sector in 2018.
CQE’s development recognised that staffing factors influence multiple domains of care provision, including safeguarding, workforce wellbeing, leadership oversight, inspection outcomes and business continuity. As a result, the service was designed as a whole-system support model rather than a standalone tool.
Care Quality Ecosystems provides structured oversight, workforce screening and ongoing monitoring designed to support care providers in strengthening internal governance, promoting stable care cultures and mitigating foreseeable risks before they escalate into incidents, regulatory breaches or safeguarding failures.
The CQE experience, funded for six months, is only available to registered nursing and residential care homes.

The Ecosystem at work
