Care Home Sales

I provide my clients with strategically appropriate solutions to help guide them through all stages of the lifecycle including buying and selling care homes and assisting with all related commercial contracts. I understand the complexities of  framework contracts and the Care Quality Commission (CQC) process. I am also versed in working with the Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW) for Welsh transctions. I frequently advise members of the care profession on the following:
