What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 23 June 2023 · Last inspected 3 May 2023

Inspectors found that this domiciliary care agency, which provides personal care to older people, some of whom may live with dementia, was generally well regarded by the people and relatives they spoke with, who described staff positively. Staff were trained and inducted, helped people with meals, drinks and access to other services, and said they felt well supported by the registered manager. Inspectors also found that oversight, safeguarding and some staffing and recruitment processes needed to be stronger.

Strengths noted
  • Most people and relatives spoke positively about the staff who supported them.
  • People were supported to keep choice and control over their lives, with the least restrictive approach used.
  • Staff received induction and training suited to people's needs, and helped with meals, drinks and accessing other services.
  • Feedback was sought regularly by telephone, information on how to complain was provided, and staff described a positive culture.
Areas to improve
  • Audit, risk assessment and incident management processes were not robust enough to provide safe oversight of the service.
  • Safeguarding processes were not robust, and recruitment practices were not always safe.
  • Staff sometimes lacked information about risks to people, and more could be done to support people's independence.
