What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 2 November 2022 · Last inspected 5 October 2022

This domiciliary care service supports older people in their own homes, and at the time of inspection it had six people using it. Inspectors found that care was tailored to each person's preferences, and the registered manager, who is the only member of staff providing care, gave people continuity and built warm, familiar relationships with them and their families. The report describes an approach that encourages independence while respecting dignity and privacy.

Strengths noted
  • Care is personalised and follows people's stated preferences, which are well recorded in their care plans.
  • People and their families took part in writing and updating care plans, which are person-centred and written in plain language.
  • Staff were recruited safely, with appropriate checks, and received a range of training to support people well.
  • Contingency arrangements are in place in case the registered manager is unable to work, and the service is regularly reviewed through audits and feedback from people and families.
Areas to improve
  • Risks to people were recorded, but the risk assessments were not detailed enough to give staff sufficient guidance, and inspectors recommended that risks be reviewed in line with best practice guidance.
