Social Care Quality Checking Coordinator
Inclusion Gloucestershire is commissioned by Gloucestershire County Council to carry out Quality Checks of residential homes, supported living settings, day services and domiciliary care providers across the county. The purpose of these checks is to ensure that disabled people who live in these settings are safe, healthy and happy, and that the care that they receive is appropriate to their needs.
Our Quality Checks are peer‑led. Every Quality Check involves a team of two people, a Quality Checker (Expert by Experience) who has lived experience of disability, autism and/or mental ill health working alongside a Quality Checking Coordinator. The Coordinator’s role is to facilitate the quality check on the day, record all of the information gathered and produce a report which identifies good practice and areas for improvement. The Expert by Experience will lead on asking questions during a Quality Check and contribute to the report by telling the Quality Checking Coordinator what they thought about the setting.
Inclusion Gloucestershire provides a comprehensive framework of questions asked by the Expert by Experience on the visit and used to write the report with. The framework focuses on questions for the people who are supported in the setting, and also includes questions for the staff and manager.

We are proud to have been recognised with an Inclusive Employer award but realise that people from some backgrounds are under‑represented in our workforce and across the wider charity sector. A more diverse workforce will enable us to deliver even more impact, and we particularly encourage applications from communities which are currently under‑represented. This includes people from ethnically diverse communities, people with lived experience of disability or mental ill health, and people who are neurodiverse.
