Have a question about our Health Check service?

We offer all providers a free health check of their employment contracts and service user contracts.

As a care provider it is crucial that you have the correct contractual agreements in place. Failure to do so can have financial and legal consequences but also cause reputation damage. Our Health check service is designed to protect you whilst also giving you the most pragmatic and commercial options. Speak to the team today.
