What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 12 December 2022 · Last inspected 9 November 2022

Inspectors found that people receive reliable care from a consistent, long-standing team who understand their needs and treat them with respect. Staff are trained, and the service adjusts care quickly when people's needs change. The service does not currently have a registered manager, although a new manager was due to start.

Strengths noted
  • Care is described as reliable, delivered by a stable team who have supported people for many years and know their needs well.
  • Staff are trained to deliver care safely and effectively, and medicines are handled safely by staff with the right training.
  • The service responds promptly to changing needs, including arranging additional care hours when required.
  • Managers check care quality through visits and calls, people can reach a manager when needed, and staff say they feel well supported.
Areas to improve
  • Care plans and risk assessments were not always reviewed, so many no longer reflected people's changing needs.
  • Systems for auditing records, including medicines records, were not clear, and daily care records did not allow wellbeing or diet to be monitored.
  • Some policies and procedures need updating to reflect current guidance and legislation.
