About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 13 February 2020. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Dignity in Life is a service which provides support to older people and younger adults with a range of learning and physical disabilities, in their own homes. 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. At the time of the inspection the service was supporting approximately 110 people of whom 102 were receiving personal care.

What inspectors found

Systems were in place to safeguard people from the risk of abuse. General and individual risk assessments were evident within people's care files. Medicines systems were safe. Staff completed appropriate medicines training and regular refreshers to ensure their knowledge and skills remained current. The service were compliant with infection control and prevention procedures. Staff recruitment was safe, there was a thorough induction and on-going training. People told us staffing was consistent.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

People's needs were thoroughly assessed and care plans were regularly reviewed and updated. The service worked well with other professionals and agencies and supported people with health issues.

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 treated with kindness and supported well. People were involved in care planning and review and felt their dignity was always respected. People's choices and preferences were documented and taken into account when delivering care. People were supported to access social activities if this was required. Complaints were addressed with appropriate actions and learning.

A positive, person-centred culture was promoted by the managers and staff at the service. People felt the manager was approachable and responsive. There was evidence of regular audits, satisfaction surveys and staff spot checks.
