The inspection

We carried out this inspection under Section 60 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (the Act) as part of our regulatory functions. We checked whether the provider was meeting the legal requirements and regulations associated with the Act. We looked at the overall quality of the service and provided a rating for the service under the Care Act 2014.

Inspection team

The inspection was carried out by one inspector.

Service and service type

This service is a domiciliary care agency. It provides personal care to people living in their own homes.

The service had a manager registered with the Care Quality Commission. This means that they and the provider are legally responsible for how the service is run and for the quality and safety of the care provided.

Notice of inspection

We gave the service 48 hours’ notice of the inspection. This was because it is a small service and we needed to be sure that the provider or registered manager would be in the office to support the inspection.

We visited the office location on 11 September 2019.

What we did before the inspection

We reviewed information we had received about the service since the last inspection. We sought feedback from the local authority and professionals who work with the service. We used the information the provider sent us in the provider information return. This is information providers are required to send us with key information about their service, what they do well, and improvements they plan to make. This information helps support our inspections. We used all this information to plan our inspection.

During the inspection

We spoke with two people on the phone who used the service about their experience of the care provided. We spoke with three members of care staff including the registered manager. We reviewed a range of records. This included two people’s care records and medication records. We looked at three staff files in relation to recruitment and staff supervision. We reviewed a variety of records relating to the management of the service.

People’s experience of using this service and what we found

Staff were aware of the safety and wellbeing of people who used the service and kept people safe from avoidable harm, abuse and discrimination. Staff followed good infection control practises and administered people’s medicines safely.

People received the right support based on their current needs and preferences. Staff had the right skills and knowledge to carry out their roles effectively and were well-supported by the registered manager.

People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible and in their best interests; the policies and systems in the service supported this practice.

Staff were kind and compassionate and showed a genuine passion for providing high standards of care. We were told by people their privacy and dignity were respected and they were supported to be as independent as possible.

People received personalised care and support based on their individual needs and preferences.

The service was well-led. The registered manager had good oversight of the running of the service and was making continuous improvements.
