Our Enter & View Policy
The purpose of this policy is to provide good practice guidance on Enter and View visits to ensure they are carried out in an effective, accountable and transparent manner
An Enter and View visit is an opportunity for Healthwatch Kensington & Chelsea’s Authorised Representatives to spot how services could improve by listening to the views of the people that use them, within criteria set out in the legislation.
There are two pieces of legislation which place a duty on health and social care providers to allow a representative of Healthwatch to carry out Enter and View:
- The Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007
- The Local Authorities (Public Health Function and Entry to Premises by Local Healthwatch Representatives) Regulations 2013
This policy document outlines the rules and procedures to follow while carrying out an Enter & View visit.
