What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 9 November 2022 · Last inspected 27 September 2022

Inspectors found that people using this domiciliary care agency were generally content with their support and with the staff who provided it. Care was based on each person's documented choices, and staff were described as respecting privacy and dignity. Inspectors noted that visit timing and staff consistency needed work, and the registered manager had already begun to address both.

Strengths noted
  • People were generally satisfied with their care and said they felt safe.
  • Staff had protective equipment available and used it well to reduce the risk of infection during personal care.
  • People were supported to take their prescribed medicines as independently as possible, and staff were judged competent when helping them.
  • People and their families took part in assessments and care planning, and individual choices and preferences were recorded.
Areas to improve
  • The timing of visits did not always meet people's care and support needs, and this needed improving.
  • People asked for more consistency from the care workers who supported them.
  • Some staff felt their training could be provided more promptly and in more detail.
