What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 9 May 2019 · Last inspected 19 March 2019

Inspectors found that this home care service supports a small number of people in their own homes. People and their families said they felt safe with staff, and care was delivered in a respectful, considerate way that protected people's dignity. Staff knew the people they cared for well, although some care records and recording processes needed strengthening.

Strengths noted
  • Staff were described as considerate and respectful, and people's dignity was protected.
  • Safeguarding arrangements and infection control practices were in place and followed.
  • Care was planned together with people and their families, and people had regular chances to talk about their support.
  • The registered manager was open about the shortfalls found, and staff said they felt supported and able to raise concerns.
Areas to improve
  • Recruitment checks were not thorough enough to confirm that staff were safe to work with the people using the service.
  • Some risks were not explored fully, and care plans for people living with dementia lacked guidance on how to support them.
  • Mental capacity assessments and best-interest decisions were not recorded for people who lacked capacity, and medicines were not always handled in line with the provider's own policy.
