About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 28 September 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Genesis international solutions is a home care service providing personal care to people in their own home. The service provides support to people with a range of needs including older adults who may be living with dementia. At the time of our inspection there were 6 people receiving a live in care service.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

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.

What inspectors found

The provider did not always ensure they met their legal duty to safeguard people when information of concern was raised in an effective or timely way. The provider did not ensure they completed all required pre-employment checks when recruiting new staff. People were supported with their health and social care needs, including medicines, by staff who knew them and their needs well. There were multiple examples where people's care and medicines records were not always complete, up to date or accurate to reflect the care they received.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Records relating to people's fluid intake could be improved. People's nutritional needs were met. Staff supported people 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 provider did not demonstrate they considered the principles of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 to consistently support this practice. We received positive feedback from staff that they felt supported in their role.

We received consistent positive feedback from relatives that their loved ones were provided with kind, caring and compassionate support. People were treated with dignity and respect and staff promoted people's independence where possible.

Most people's care records were person centred and included information on their personal history, the things that were important to them and their preferences. The provider had a complaints procedure in place and valued people's feedback. People were supported with their end-of-life care needs, however records about people's wishes were not in place.

The service was not always well-led. Governance systems were not effective or robust to ensure the provider consistently met their requirements.
