What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 4 August 2023 · Last inspected 7 July 2023

Inspectors looked at this home care agency in Hemel Hempstead, which supports seven people with personal care in their own homes. People said they felt secure, that staff were respectful and kind, and that a steady team of carers helped them keep their independence. The report also raises concerns about assessments, training, choice and control, and oversight, and the overall rating is requires improvement.

Strengths noted
  • People said they felt safe with the support they received, and staff raised worries when they arose.
  • Staff were described as respectful, caring and supportive of people's independence.
  • People were served by a consistent group of carers and expected complaints to be dealt with quickly.
  • Carers wore protective equipment during visits, and ongoing risks to individuals were managed safely.
Areas to improve
  • Needs were not always assessed when they were identified, which left some people open to avoidable harm.
  • Training did not always prepare staff to meet people's needs, some key subjects had not been covered, and staff performance was not reviewed well enough.
  • People did not always have real choice and control, including over who provided their care, and checks on care quality missed shortfalls, with weak record keeping and missed visit times also noted.
