What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 6 July 2022 · Last inspected 23 June 2022

Inspectors found that people using this domiciliary care service felt safe and were treated with dignity and respect, and that staff were seen as skilled. Medicines support, risk assessment, care records and quality checks were judged to need improvement, and the report notes that the provider is introducing new electronic systems. The service's overall rating is requires improvement, and it is no longer in special measures.

Strengths noted
  • People felt safe, and staff were described as safely recruited.
  • People gave positive feedback about the care they received, and inspectors found they were treated with dignity and respect.
  • Staff had access to policies, guidance and training, and people were confident in their skills.
  • Consent was recorded and sought, and the service was seen to support people in the least restrictive way possible.
Areas to improve
  • Medicines were not always managed safely, and risk assessments were brief, not personalised, and sometimes lacked records showing that identified risks had been addressed.
  • Some people reported missed or late visits and suggested the service would benefit from more staff, and gaps were noted in recruitment records for some long-term staff.
  • Care records were brief and lacked detail about individual needs, and audits and monitoring did not identify the shortfalls found at this inspection.
