What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 9 November 2021 · Last inspected 5 October 2021

Inspectors found that people receiving personal care in their own homes were supported by staff who knew their needs, had completed training, and treated them warmly. Safeguarding arrangements were in place, and people said staff arrived on time and carried out the tasks needed. Inspectors also found that some risk assessments and care plans were incomplete, medicine records were not always fully completed, and oversight systems needed strengthening.

Strengths noted
  • Staff were familiar with people's needs, had received training, and were described as caring.
  • Staff supported people with dignity and respect, and people and their relatives were involved in planning their care.
  • Assessments were carried out before support started, and staff understood how to recognise and report abuse.
  • Staff said they felt supported by the registered manager, and they had regular meetings and supervision. Staff wore appropriate protective equipment and were trained in infection control.
Areas to improve
  • Not all known risks to people had a risk assessment, and some care plans lacked sufficient detail.
  • Medicine records were not always completed, and were not consistently signed to show who had given a medicine.
  • Systems for overseeing the service needed improvement, and additional recorded audits were required.
