What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 18 December 2023 · Last inspected 27 November 2023

Inspectors rated this home care service good at an inspection carried out in November 2023. The service supports people in their own homes with personal care, including hygiene and eating, and the report says there are enough staff, who are regular and familiar to the people they support. Inspectors found staff who know individual needs and risks, and quality and safety are checked through systems led by the registered manager.

Strengths noted
  • Staff are knowledgeable about people's individual care needs and the risks linked to them, and risks are assessed, planned for and monitored.
  • People receive care from regular staff they speak positively about, and care calls are monitored to check they are on time and match assessed needs.
  • People are supported with prescribed medicines safely, and infection prevention and control practice is followed, including the use of protective equipment.
  • People describe the staff as caring and compassionate, and speak well of the communication and responsiveness of the registered manager.
Areas to improve
  • Recruitment was carried out safely, but the provider needed to ensure it consistently followed its own recruitment policy.
  • Written guidance for staff about people's health conditions and how they affect care was limited, although the registered manager has plans to improve it.
  • Inspectors made a recommendation about the provider's oversight and leadership practice.
