About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 14 February 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Home Care Essex is a domiciliary care agency who provide personal care to people in their own homes. At the time of inspection 10 people were using the service. 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 and their relatives were very positive in the feedback they gave about the service. One relative said, "I cannot fault them (staff), they are very good and on the ball." Another relative said, "We are getting the best treatment."
Read the rest of CQC's summary
Care planning was person-centred and delivered in a way which was intended to ensure people's safety and welfare. People were cared for safely by staff who had been recruited and employed after appropriate checks had been completed. Staff had received appropriate training. There were systems in place to minimise the risk of infection and to learn lessons from accidents and incidents. Medicines when needed were dispensed by staff who had received training to do so.
People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible; the policies and systems in the service support this practice.
People when needed were supported with hydration and nutrition. The provider responded to complaints received in a timely manner. People were supported to make plans for the end of their life.
Systems had been put in place to monitor the service, provide oversight and drive positive outcomes for people.
