What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 14 December 2022 · Last inspected 11 October 2022

Inspectors found that everyday care was delivered by staff who were kind and caring, and that people's privacy, dignity and independence were respected. Support was not always consistent, with staff sometimes late, changes not always communicated, and some staff lacking the training and experience to meet needs fully.

Strengths noted
  • Friendly, caring relationships have developed between people and care staff
  • People's dignity, privacy and independence were considered and respected in their own homes
  • Staff were trained in end of life care and people's wishes were recorded
  • Infection control was supported, with access to protective equipment and up-to-date guidance
Areas to improve
  • Care was not always delivered on time and people were not always told about changes to visits
  • Risk assessments and care plans did not consistently give staff clear guidance
  • Staffing levels and medicines management were not always safe
