What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 23 March 2022 · Last inspected 9 March 2022

Inspectors describe a small domiciliary care agency that supports a few people in their own homes after a period of dormancy during the pandemic. People reported that the service was reliable and tailored to them, and they had confidence in their care workers. Staff said they felt well prepared through induction, training and infection control practice.

Strengths noted
  • Calls are planned and delivered well, with no late or missed visits recorded.
  • Care is reviewed regularly, and pre-admission assessments are thorough.
  • Feedback from people and their relatives is gathered regularly and used to adapt care.
  • Systems protect people from harm and abuse, and staff know what action to take, with clear routes for raising concerns.
Areas to improve
  • A relative described frequent changes of care worker because of staff leaving, and two care packages had to be handed back to the local authority because of staffing shortages.
  • The service is growing slowly and new referrals are assessed carefully to check that enough suitably skilled staff are available.
