About

What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 1 June 2023 · Last inspected 13 March 2023

The agency provides personal care to a small number of people in their own homes. Inspectors found that the small staff team knows the people it supports well, that people spoke positively about the care they receive, and that staff feel supported by the provider. Some care records, medication practice and checks on the service still need to improve.

Strengths noted
  • The small staff team knows the people it supports well.
  • Staff follow infection control procedures and help protect people from infection.
  • Staff have completed safeguarding training and feel able to raise concerns.
  • Staff say they feel supported, and people said staff provide good care.
Areas to improve
  • Recruitment practices need improving to make sure staff are suitable to support people.
  • Care plans and risk assessments need more detail, and medication and cream records do not consistently follow the provider's own policy. Some staff also need better safeguarding knowledge.
  • Checks and audits did not identify these problems, the provider needs a way to monitor call times and durations, and the last two Provider Information Returns were not completed.
