About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 20 October 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Serendipity Healthcare Ltd is a domiciliary care agency, providing personal care to people living in their own homes. At the time of our inspection 217 people were using the service who all received support with personal care.
What inspectors found
People and their relatives told us they felt safe with the care provided. Risks which affected people's daily lives were assessed and monitored. Staff were recruited safely, and the majority of people told us they received their visits on time. A small proportion of people told us that staff were sometimes late. The service was aware of this through their quality monitoring processes and were working to improve this. Medicines were managed safely and administered by trained staff. We were assured that the provider had sufficient infection, prevention and control measures in place. The registered manager had contingency plans in place to address events which may disrupt service delivery.

Staff had completed mandatory induction training prior to delivering services to people, staff regularly refreshed and updated their training. Staff worked with other agencies to ensure people had access to healthcare and support.
People spoke positively about staff and were involved with their care planning including how they wished to be supported. Staff understood how to promote people's independence and respected people's privacy and dignity.
People received personalised care during their visits that was tailored to their needs and preferences. People and their relatives told us they knew how to complain and were regularly given opportunity to raise any concerns. The service had received many compliments about the care staff had provided.
The registered manager had quality assurance systems in place which ensured all aspects of the service were regularly audited. There was a positive, person centred approach to the planning and provision of people's care, this was demonstrated by the staff knowledge and understanding of the people they were supporting.
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.
