About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 15 September 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Home Instead Thurrock is a domiciliary care agency providing the regulated activity of personal care to people in their own homes. The service provides support to older people, people living with dementia, young adults and people with a physical disability. At the time of our inspection, eight people were receiving personal care. Not everyone who used the service received personal care. CQC only inspects where people receive personal care. This is help with tasks related to personal hygiene and eating. Where they do, we also consider any wider social care provided.

What inspectors found

People received safe care from staff who knew them well. There was a safeguarding policy in place and the nominated individual and staff knew how to identify and report any concerns.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

The service had enough staff to meet the needs of the people using the service. Staff had been safely recruited and pre employment checks carried out.

Staff supported people with their medicines. People told us they received their medicines on time.

Staff had received an induction and training to enable them to meet people's needs. We saw that supervisions and spot check meetings for staff were carried out and staff told us they felt supported by the nominated individual to perform their role.

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.

The service carried out an assessment of each person's needs and how they liked to be cared for and care plans included guidance for staff on how to meet those needs.

Staff had access to personal protective equipment (PPE) and there were effective infection prevention and control measures in place.

People's nutritional needs were met. They received support to eat and drink enough to maintain a balanced diet.

The nominated individual sought support and liaised with other health and social care professionals when needed. As a result, staff safely and effectively met people's needs.

Most people, relatives and staff spoke positively about the management; One person said, "They mean very well, if I ask them to do something, they do it without question." There were systems in place to monitor,

maintain and improve the quality of the service.
