About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 6 April 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

The service provides support to older adults who may also suffer from physical disability, sensory impairment or dementia. At the time of our inspection there were 6 people using 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

People and their relatives told us they felt safe using the service. Effective systems were in place to ensure peoples' safety. Recruitment processes ensured suitability of staff for their roles. There were enough staff to meet peoples' needs, and staff were knowledgeable about their role in keeping people safe from harm. Risk assessments were comprehensive and reviewed regularly. There were robust systems in place to ensure safe medicine administration.

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. People were involved in their care planning and were supported to maintain their independence.

Feedback from people and relatives was unanimously positive. People told us staff were caring, kind, compassionate and friendly. One person told us, "they treat us like family." Staff we spoke to were passionate about their roles. One staff member told us, "I honestly enjoy going to work every day and making people smile and I am proud to be a part of the team."

People and their relatives said they felt listened to and were comfortable raising concerns. People's communication needs were assessed, and care plans included detailed descriptions of their communication requirements.

All feedback about the registered manager was positive. The registered manager had good oversight of the service and was supported by the area manager. The registered manager and staff knew people well, and demonstrated a shared sense of respect for each other, and the people they supported.
