About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 23 May 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Ginger Homecare Limited provides home care services enabling people to be cared for while living in their own homes. The service is managed from the registered office in Leyland. At the time of this inspection 70 people were receiving regulated personal care and support from the service. 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

We expect health and social care providers to guarantee autistic people and people with a learning disability the choices, dignity, independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. Right support, right care, right culture is the statutory guidance which supports CQC to make assessments and judgements about services providing support to people with a learning disability and/or autistic people. We considered this guidance as there were people using the service who have a learning disability and or who are autistic.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

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. Consent to care and treatment had been obtained and where people lacked capacity relevant others had been involved in supporting people's decision making.

Risks relating to people's needs had been identified and records provided a detailed plan for managing those risks. Medicines were administered and managed safely. There were enough members of staff on the rota to support the number of people using the service.

Training records demonstrated appropriate and relevant training was provided. Referrals were made to other healthcare services where necessary. People told us they thought the care they received was very good and spoke positively about the staff who supported them.

People told us the staff treated them with dignity and respect and were kind and caring towards them. Care plans demonstrated a person-centred approach. Concerns and complaints were promptly responded to.

Quality monitoring and auditing systems were well established. There was regular oversight of the safety and quality of the service. People said very positive things about the management and staff and described the service as 'very good'.
