About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 19 November 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

L & N Services Ltd t/a Bluebird Care is a domiciliary care service registered to provide personal care to people who live in their own homes. At the time of our inspection, there were 54 people receiving personal care and support.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Not everyone who used the service received personal care. The Care Quality Commission (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

This was a targeted inspection which considered safeguarding and staffing. Based on our inspection of safeguarding and staffing we found the service was using appropriate systems to ensure staffing levels were appropriate and people were safeguarded from abuse.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

People felt safe when receiving support from staff and staff were aware of how to safeguard people from abuse. The provider ensured health and social care professionals were engaged with the safeguarding of people from abuse.

People, relatives and staff were all positive about their experiences with the service. People told us they had reliable support that was centred on them and promoted their health and wellbeing.

There were appropriate numbers of staff to support people when required. Systems were in place to prevent and minimise the spread of infections when supporting people.
