What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 28 September 2023 · Last inspected 31 July 2023

Townfield Home Care provides personal care in people's own homes to adults with varied support needs. Inspectors found that staff were kind, respectful and fond of the people they supported, and that carers who worked regularly with people got to know them well. Some care records and risk assessments needed more detail to guide staff.

Strengths noted
  • Staff were described as kind, and inspectors saw them treating people with dignity.
  • Recruitment checks were thorough, and staff received solid training and induction.
  • Medicines were managed safely, and staff had access to protective equipment to reduce infection risk.
  • Relatives praised the service's reliability and the consistency of their carers.
Areas to improve
  • Some care records lacked important detail about people's individual support needs, and risk assessments needed more specific guidance for staff.
  • Policies and systems did not always support people having as much choice and control as possible.
  • Staffing was at times challenging, although enough staff were available to meet people's needs.
