What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 12 May 2023 · Last inspected 21 February 2023

The service supports people in their own homes, including older people, people living with dementia, people with physical disabilities and younger adults. Inspectors received mixed feedback about staffing levels and whether staff arrived at agreed times. Care plans did not always reflect people's preferences or hold accurate information about their needs.

Strengths noted
  • The report does not describe specific current strengths; it notes that the service's previous inspection rating, in 2018, was good.
Areas to improve
  • Risks to people were not always identified, assessed or recorded, and staff did not always have detailed risk management information.
  • The electronic call monitoring system was not used effectively, which put people at risk of late or missed visits.
  • Medicines management was not always safe, and quality monitoring and governance were not effective at finding and fixing problems.
