About Clinivi
Clinivi is a proud family-run consultancy built on decades of collective experience within the healthcare sector. Our foundation is rooted in passion — a genuine desire to share our knowledge, empower healthcare professionals, and help organisations achieve excellence in governance, compliance, and leadership. We are more than consultants; we are partners in your journey toward safer, more effective, and more compassionate healthcare delivery.
Who Are We?
Our team brings together an exceptional blend of clinical expertise, regulatory understanding, and operational insight. Having worked across NHS and private healthcare environments, we understand first-hand the challenges faced by providers — from maintaining compliance to supporting staff wellbeing and ensuring sustainable growth. At Clinivi, we believe that healthcare quality begins with strong governance, confident leadership, and a culture of accountability and care.
What We Do
- Governance and Compliance Support: Expert guidance in developing and strengthening clinical governance frameworks to meet regulatory standards and best practice.
- CQC Coaching and Mentorship: Tailored coaching for Registered Managers and Nominated Individuals to help them understand, prepare for, and excel in CQC inspections and ongoing compliance.
- Life and Leadership Coaching: Empowering individuals to lead with confidence, clarity, and compassion through personal and professional coaching.
- Specialist Compliance Assessments: Thorough reviews and readiness assessments for CQC, MHRA, JAG, and laboratory compliance, helping organisations identify gaps, mitigate risks, and build lasting systems of assurance.
We don’t believe in “off-the-shelf” solutions. Every organisation is unique, and so are its challenges. That is why we take a bespoke, collaborative approach — working closely with you to design policies, processes, and systems that truly reflect your services, your people, and your values.
Our Approach
At Clinivi, we pride ourselves on being accessible, responsive, and affordable. We take the time to listen, to understand your organisation, and to craft solutions that genuinely work. Whether you need support with clinical governance, risk management, policy development, or leadership mentoring, we ensure the outcome is practical, compliant, and sustainable.
We offer nationwide support across all areas of clinical governance and risk management. Our consultants regularly visit clients across the UK to conduct on-site assessments, deliver training, and provide hands-on support that makes a real difference.
Why Choose Clinivi
We understand the pressures healthcare providers face — from regulatory complexity to staff shortages and financial constraints. That’s why your trust is our top priority. Our goal is not simply to meet compliance standards but to strengthen your organisation’s confidence, credibility, and culture of quality.
With Clinivi, you’ll gain a trusted partner who values integrity, transparency, and results. We’re here to help you build a service that’s safe, effective, and truly outstanding in the eyes of regulators, patients, and staff alike.
Our Mission
Clinivi’s mission is to empower healthcare organisations to deliver safe, effective and compassionate services that consistently meet and exceed the standards set out by national regulators and best practice bodies including the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE). We are driven by a genuine commitment to improve outcomes for patients and strengthen systems of accountability, assurance and professional wellbeing throughout the healthcare sector. By providing robust governance support, tailored compliance coaching and expert leadership development, we enable organisations to build high-performing services where quality, safety and continuous improvement are embedded at every level.
Our Vision
Our vision is a healthcare landscape where every care provider — whether NHS, independent or voluntary sector — has the confidence, competence and culture required to achieve outstanding standards of care. We aspire to be recognised across the UK as the most trusted specialist partner in governance and compliance, supporting organisations to uphold regulatory confidence, clinical credibility and operational resilience. We believe that strong governance frameworks, aligned to key regulatory and statutory guidance, create the foundations for innovative, sustainable and truly person-centred healthcare services. By working collaboratively with providers nationwide, we are helping shape a future where healthcare professionals feel empowered, leadership is compassionate and informed, and every patient experiences excellence.
Our Values
Excellence in Care: We are dedicated to strengthening the quality and safety of healthcare delivery through rigorous compliance with CQC regulations, NICE guidelines and national safety standards. Patient wellbeing is always the focus behind our work. Partnership at the Heart: We believe the best outcomes come from collaboration. Working alongside leaders, clinicians and care teams, we ensure operational solutions are shaped around the specific needs, strengths and goals of every organisation. Integrity and Transparency: Trust is essential in healthcare governance. We act with openness, ethical responsibility and professional clarity in everything we do, ensuring organisations feel supported and informed in their decision-making. Empowerment and Growth: Our coaching programmes strengthen confident leadership and a positive organisational culture where staff feel equipped, valued and supported to provide high-quality care. We build capability so improvements are sustainable long after our involvement. Expertise with Purpose: With decades of clinical, regulatory and operational experience, our consultancy exists to make a meaningful difference. We apply our knowledge practically so systems work not only on paper, but in everyday care. Bespoke Solutions: No healthcare service is identical. We design governance frameworks, risk systems and compliance structures that are personalised to each service — reflecting its model of care, workforce, regulatory footprint and strategic ambitions, ensuring readiness for inspection, accreditation and long-term success.

Our Rates
We understand that bringing in a consultant can sometimes feel like a luxury — especially when everything seems to be running smoothly. But the truth is, prevention is almost always more affordable than repair.
When businesses face challenges such as financial strain, regulatory scrutiny, patient or customer complaints, or even closure, many of our clients tell us they wish they had reached out sooner. The costs of poor press, unhappy customers, deflated staff, police or local authority involvement, or sanctions on your registration can far outweigh the investment in expert guidance and proactive improvement.
Our approach is simple: we help you identify risks before they turn into problems. By assessing your service against your own policies and the standards you’re required to meet, we give you the opportunity to strengthen your foundations — before it’s too late.
Our hourly rates begin at £65, and we offer bespoke packages tailored to the needs of each client. We work with organisations across the UK and internationally — teaching, advising, and supporting services of all sizes.
If you’re worried about costs but know you need help, please still get in touch. We’re always open to an informal, confidential conversation, and we’ll do our best to guide you toward the right support.
Because prevention isn’t a luxury — it’s peace of mind.
