About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 6 July 2021. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

BS Care Limited is a domiciliary care agency which provides support and personal care to people living in their own home. Not everyone using BS Care Limited received a regulated activity. CQC only inspects the service being received by people provided with 'personal care'; help with tasks related to personal hygiene and eating. Where they do, we also take into account any wider social care provided. At the time of our inspection 137 people were receiving a regulated activity from the service.

What inspectors found

People were generally satisfied with the service they received. The management team had processes for monitoring visits and endeavoured to ensure that office staff contacted people when care staff were held up or were running late for visits. However, we received mixed feedback about the timing and consistency of call times from people and their relatives. Staff also told us they did not have enough time in between visits for travel. Some improvement was required to make call times more consistent for people. We recommended the provider review staff schedules to improve outcomes for people and ensure staff had enough time to travel between visits.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

People received support from caring staff who were appropriately trained and received an induction into their role. Appropriate recruitment procedures were in place to help ensure only suitable staff were employed.

Staff were aware of risks to people's safety and wellbeing and acted to minimise these risks. People felt safe with the staff and the care and support provided. Potential risks to people's safety had been assessed, managed and monitored to ensure their needs were met.

People told us they received safe care and felt that if they raised concerns, the management team would act promptly to address these. People were safeguarded from the risk of abuse and staff knew how to raise any concerns with the management team.

Staff promoted people's independence and respected their rights, privacy and dignity. Staff knew people well and valued people's individual lifestyle choices and culture.

A new system had been introduced to improve medicine administration checks. People received their medicines as prescribed and infection control risks were managed effectively.

Staff supported people to access healthcare professionals when they needed to, and worked alongside social care professionals to ensure a joined-up approach to people's care.

The provider had a quality assurance system. This included regular spot checks, audits and feedback surveys.

The registered manager was aware of their responsibilities in meeting their legal obligations. They showed commitment and welcomed feedback to improve the quality of care people received and the overall service.
