What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 4 December 2023 · Last inspected 13 November 2023

Inspectors found that people receiving home care from this Grimsby agency, including people living with dementia, learning disabilities or autism, were supported in their own homes with kindness and respect for their privacy. Staff were described as consistent, well trained, and able to tailor support to each person's needs and communication preferences.

Strengths noted

Areas to improve
  • Quality monitoring allowed the provider to oversee the service effectively, but action plans were not always revisited, and inspectors made a recommendation about this.
