What inspectors found
CQC: Requires improvementReport published 15 September 2022 · Last inspected 19 August 2022
Inspectors looked at a domiciliary care service that supports people in their own homes, with personal care provided to some of the people it supports. Most people and relatives who gave feedback were satisfied, and staff were described as well recruited, trained and supported. Concerns centred on staff changes affecting continuity, gaps in communication about changes to visits, and the need for stronger oversight, safeguarding reporting and social inclusion.
- People receiving personal care said it met their needs, that they were treated with respect, and that staff sought their consent.
- Risks to people were assessed and managed safely, and care plans were reviewed regularly to guide staff in supporting people's independence.
- Staff were recruited safely, received induction and ongoing training, and said they felt supported by management.
- Medicines were handled as prescribed, and infection prevention and control practices met legal requirements and recognised guidance.
- High staff turnover sometimes affected continuity, and some people did not always receive visits at the expected times or from staff they knew.
- Changes to agreed support were not always communicated promptly, and some people and relatives found the care records they could access were out of date.
- Systems for safeguarding, notifying the regulator and monitoring quality were not fully effective, and the provider needed to improve how it supports choice, control and social inclusion.
