What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 30 October 2020 · Last inspected 2 October 2020

The report says people receiving care in their own homes felt secure, were usually visited by a consistent team, and found staff punctual. Inspectors found staff well trained and supervised regularly, and people praised the approach of both staff and the registered manager. Governance has improved since the last inspection, and the service's rating moved from requires improvement to good, although one issue with medicine administration records remained.

Strengths noted
  • Staff are described as punctual, and people usually receive care from a consistent team.
  • Staff training and regular supervision support safe and effective care.
  • People are supported to eat well and live healthily, with guidance for staff on supporting people with diabetes and on spotting the first signs of a stroke.
  • Medicines management, risk assessment and care planning have improved since the last inspection, and infection control, including measures against COVID-19, is robust.
Areas to improve
  • One issue with a person's medicine administration records was still identified, although the report says wider medicines improvements have reduced risk.
  • The report notes that most people spoken with would recommend the service, which implies not everyone did.
