About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 28 March 2020. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Careline Homecare Middlesbrough is a domiciliary care service providing personal care to people living in their own homes in Middlesbrough and Redcar and Cleveland.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

The service supported young adults and older adults who lived with a mental health condition, learning disability, physical disability or who needed support at the end of their life. In addition, the service also provided a rapid response service. This meant the service supported people who were leaving hospital or a care home or where an existing care package may have broken down. A package of support was put in place the same day.

At inspection 214 people were using the service. 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 inspection 194 people received personal care.

What inspectors found

People received safe care from staff who knew their needs very well. Risks to people were well managed and staff were responsive when people's needs changed. People received their calls on time and staff stayed for the full amount of time. One person said, "The best thing about the service is the consistency."

Read the rest of CQC's summary

There were mixed reviews about the knowledge and skills needed to provide effective support to people. The registered manager was reviewing this following feedback during inspection. People were supported with their health and well-being. Recommendations from health professionals had been followed.

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 and staff thought highly of each other. Comments included, "Care workers are very considerate. They are very kind. I could not wish for better." And, "Care workers make the service marvellous." People said staff went the 'extra mile.' Staff supported people to be as independent as possible and respected their choices, beliefs and values.

People received care which was central to their individual needs. Care records supported staff to deliver care which met people's needs. A recent vintage tea party organised by the service supported people with their social contact. People said they felt able to raise a concern and were confident it would be addressed.

Leaders had the right skills and knowledge to deliver a safe service. A positive culture supported an open and transparent service. Quality assurance measures had led to continual change at the service. People said

the service was good. Comments included, "It's a good service. A very caring service." And, "Everything is spot on."
