Report published 30 December 2021 · Last inspected 12 November 2021

Inspectors looked at this domiciliary care service in Chippenham, which helps people with personal hygiene and eating in their own homes, in a focused review of the safe and well-led areas after concerns about risk and incident management. Risks to people were assessed and managed, and staff were trained on medicines, safeguarding and COVID-19 measures. People and relatives described staff as reliable, professional and caring, and the service worked well with outside professionals and the local authority.

Strengths noted
  • Risk assessments and management plans were in place for people, and changes were made after a serious incident.
  • Staff were trained on safeguarding and medicines, and their medicines competence was checked by senior staff.
  • People and relatives said visits were reliable, staff were professional, and there were enough staff to meet needs.
  • Quality monitoring systems were in place, and there was a registered manager supported by a senior team, with regular staff meetings.
Areas to improve
  • Some incidents and accidents were not recorded on the provider's incident system, so the action taken was not always documented.
  • For one person, a safety check with the prescriber had not been carried out, though the provider acted on this during the inspection.
  • People said communication about changes to their regular staff needed to improve, and the provider planned to address this.
