Who are you?
Yorkshire Quality Partners is the vehicle for consultancy services and products developed by Chris Revett.
Chris has over 20 years of experience in social care and has worked right across the sector with deep experience in adult and children’s services, including working in learning disability/autism, elderly, education, children’s homes, residential care homes, supported living and domiciliary care.
Chris has also spent time as a Charity Trustee / Board Member for Henshaws Society for Blind People. He is a C-CAF Accredited Consultant and volunteers policy writing knowledge as a contributor for OpenDoc by Health Connect.
Chris also brings extensive experience in IT / technology, and has created numerous bespoke solutions to problems faced by various providers. Chris’ product ‘Talking Care’, an AI chatbot powered by real legislation (no hallucination, no guessing) dedicated to supporting care leaders, will shortly be joining Yorkshire Quality Partners and will be accessible through this website.
Chris started out as a support worker in 2006 in Cambridgeshire. Chris quickly progressed and worked as a Registered Manager for various providers, including Cygnet Group, CareTech & Wilf Ward Family Trust before moving solely into Quality & Compliance in 2022.
Since 2022, Chris has provided Quality & Compliance oversight at Shaftesbury Group (then Livability), built a Quality department and all associated tools/audits/policies/anything else you can imagine for Specialist Homecare Group, transformed Policies & Procedures at Hft, and more recently taking on interim Compliance Management responsibilities at Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust.
Chris is now based in North Yorkshire, and seeks to bring his skills and knowledge to a wider range of partners and organisations through Yorkshire Quality Partners.
NB: It felt really strange and not at all gratifying to write about myself in the third person, but apparently its the right thing to do for such occasions - Chris.
