About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 28 August 2020. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Bridges Homecare is a domiciliary care agency (DCA). The service provides personal care services to people in their own homes or people in supported living arrangements.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
At the time of our inspection 135 people received personal care as the regulated activity. Not everyone who used the service received personal care. CQC only inspects where people receive personal care. This is to help with tasks related to personal hygiene and eating. Where they do, we also consider any wider social care provided.
The last rating for this service was Requires Improvement (Report published 1 February 2020). At the last inspection we found medicines management was not based on current best practice.
The systems in place to monitor the quality of service were not always effective in that they had not identified the concerns found in relation to their registration and medicines management. This was a breach of Regulation 17 HSCA RA Regulations 2014 Good governance.
The provider completed an action plan after the last inspection to show what they would do and by when to improve. At this inspection we found the provider had taken action and improvements had been made. The provider was no longer in breach of this regulation.
Questions to ask the service
