What inspectors found

CQC: Outstanding

Report published 22 October 2019 · Last inspected 3 September 2019

Inspectors found that staff were motivated, skilled and caring, and that people receiving support from this domiciliary care agency were very satisfied with the service.

The service was rated outstanding, up from good at its previous inspection.

Strengths noted
  • Staff were described as caring, and people said they were happy with the support they received.

  • People and staff were regularly asked for feedback, and both felt the service was well run under the registered manager's person-centred approach.

Areas to improve
