About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 17 January 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

We expect health and social care providers to guarantee people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices and independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. 'Right support, right care, right culture' is the guidance CQC follows to make assessments and judgements about services supporting people with a learning disability and autistic people and providers must have regard to it.

Rainbow Care Solutions (Redditch) is a domiciliary care agency that provides care and support to adults who may have a range of needs which include physical disabilities, varied health conditions, dementia and sensory impairments. When we inspected, 76 people were being provided with personal care by 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.
