What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 21 August 2023 · Last inspected 10 March 2023

Inspectors visited a domiciliary service providing personal care to people living in extra care housing in East Grinstead, supporting people with mental health needs, learning disabilities, physical disabilities and dementia. Staff were found to understand how to protect people from abuse and how to report it, and there were enough staff overall, although feedback about the timing and length of visits was mixed. Management consistency and oversight were highlighted as areas that needed attention.

Strengths noted
  • Staff understand how to safeguard people and how to recognise and report abuse.
  • There are sufficient staff to support people, although views on the timing and length of calls varied.
  • People's communication needs are assessed, and information can be provided in an accessible format.
  • Complaints are handled in line with the provider's policy.
Areas to improve
  • Risks linked to people's physical and mental health were not always assessed in a personalised way, and some care plans lacked detail about how staff should respond.
  • Some staff did not have the skills and training needed to support people with complex needs, and medicines were not always managed safely.
  • Management support was inconsistent, and the provider's quality assurance systems did not identify the shortfalls that inspectors found.
