LOLER inspection questions — Didcot

Common questions from care home managers and maintenance leads in the Didcot area.

Do you cover Didcot and South Oxfordshire care homes?
Yes. We cover Didcot and the surrounding area including Abingdon, Wallingford, Oxford, and Harwell. South Oxfordshire is within our regular service area.
How are LOLER records used during a CQC inspection?
CQC inspectors check that care homes have current LOLER certificates for all lifting equipment. If a certificate is out of date, they will record this as a concern. Current, well-organised records demonstrate that the home takes equipment safety seriously and contribute to a positive inspection outcome.
What if an inspector finds a gap in our LOLER records?
Contact us straight away. We can arrange an expedited inspection to address any overdue examinations and provide current certificates. We deal with these situations practically, without fuss.
Do you carry out inspections outside standard business hours if needed?
We work standard business hours by default, but we can discuss out-of-hours arrangements if there is a genuine need. Contact us and we will see what we can do.
What happens if our equipment is old and showing wear?
We record the condition accurately and give you an honest assessment. Where wear affects safety, we state clearly whether the equipment can remain in use with conditions or should be withdrawn. We do not recommend replacements unnecessarily.
