What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 12 February 2024 · Last inspected 12 December 2023

Inspectors found that the domiciliary care agency was supporting one person with personal care in their own home at the time of the inspection. Relatives were happy with the care, and staff were described as promoting the person's independence and involving them in daily life and activities they enjoy. The service was rated requires improvement, with concerns about governance, records and training.

Strengths noted
  • Relatives were happy with the care provided and spoke positively about the service's leadership and the staff.
  • Staff promoted the person's independence and involved them in aspects of daily living and activities of interest.
  • The person's care plan included details of their communication needs.
  • Staff reported incidents, and the service's infection control measures were found to be effective.
Areas to improve
  • Provider checks on the safety and quality of the service were not effective, and the person's record lacked some information staff needed for safe care.
  • There was a risk of not always having enough staff at night, recruitment was not always safe, and not all staff had training and competency assessments.
  • The person was not always supported with maximum choice and control, staff were not trained in end-of-life care, and records did not include the person's wishes.
