What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 17 June 2021 · Last inspected 24 May 2021

Inspectors visited a domiciliary care service in Windsor and Maidenhead that supported five people at home, with four receiving personal care. Relatives described staff as caring, kind and respectful, and felt their family members received agreed support on time. Staff induction and infection prevention were reported positively, though risk management, medicines systems, recruitment, training and record-keeping were found to need improvement.

Strengths noted
  • Relatives said staff treated people with dignity, kindness and respect, and understood needs such as dementia.
  • Staff said management supported them through induction and felt prepared for their roles.
  • Infection prevention procedures were in place, and staff wore appropriate personal protective equipment.
  • The incoming manager showed a person-centred approach and knowledge of the regulations, and responded quickly during the inspection.
Areas to improve
  • Risks to people were not fully identified or mitigated, and medicines systems were not always fully implemented.
  • Initial assessments and care plans did not always capture people's needs, likes and dislikes, and do-not-attempt-resuscitate status was not recorded.
  • Staff recruitment and training did not consistently meet requirements before staff worked unsupervised, and safeguarding procedures were not well understood by the service.
