What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 27 April 2021 · Last inspected 6 April 2021
Inspectors found that people receiving personal care in their own flats were kept safe, and that staff knew how to recognise and report possible abuse. Relatives described the staff as kind and caring, and said the management team was approachable and supportive. The report says that more advanced training, including in dementia care, and better sharing of lessons from incidents were still needed.
- Risks to people's health, safety and wellbeing were identified, and measures were put in place to manage them.
- Medicines were managed safely, and staff had training in infection control and were supplied with protective equipment.
- Assessments were completed before care began, and care plans reflected each person's needs, including their dietary requirements, which staff understood well.
- People were supported to make their own choices and keep control of their lives, with the least restriction possible.
- Lessons learned from incidents needed to be shared with and embedded in the practice of staff.
- Further higher-level training was required, including in areas such as dementia care.
