Mount Hill Care is a home care agency providing personal care to older adults, some of whom may live with dementia; at the time of inspection it supported one person.

  • There are enough staff to deliver care safely.
  • The person is supported to make choices about their life, with the least intrusive approach used and decisions made in their best interests.
