What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 30 December 2021 · Last inspected 3 December 2021

People using this domiciliary service said they felt safe, in control of their care, and that carers responded to their needs. Inspectors found staff understood how to use protective equipment and manage medicines safely, and that risk guidance and assessments were tailored to each person. Staffing has stayed manageable despite recruitment difficulties, which the provider has tried to address by raising carer pay.

Strengths noted
  • People and their relatives said they felt safe, and carers were seen as responsive to individual needs.
  • Staff had a good grasp of protective equipment use and disposal, and reported plentiful supplies.
  • Medicines were handled safely, supported by staff training and competency checks.
  • A culturally diverse staff team was built up to meet people's cultural needs, and staff received thorough induction and ongoing training.
Areas to improve
  • Reports on contacting the office or the on-call service were mixed, with some people unable to reach anyone and feeling concerns were not always followed up.
  • Inspectors wanted more detail in the provider's oversight records, which the provider was addressing by introducing an electronic data system.
  • Recruiting new staff remains difficult, and inspectors recommended continued efforts to recruit and promote care roles.
