About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 2 September 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
The Caring Choice Limited is a domiciliary care service which provides personal care to people in their own homes. The service mainly provides support to older people. At the time of our inspection there were 28 people using the 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 receive personal care, we also consider any wider social care provided.
What inspectors found
People were happy with the care and support they received. People were supported by staff who knew them well and had developed positive relationships with them. Staff respected people's preferences and treated people with dignity and respect.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
People felt safe when receiving care from the service. Some improvements were needed to ensure all risks to people were thoroughly assessed and mitigated. We have made a recommendation about risk assessment and management. Accidents and incidents were managed appropriately.
There were enough staff to meet people's needs at the right time. Staff turned up on time and delivered personalised care to each person. People received effective support with their medicines and there were suitable measures in place to prevent the spread of infections.
People's needs were assessed to check the service was suitable for them. People were involved in this process and they were supported to remain involved in decisions about their care. 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.
Without exception, everyone told us the staff were kind and caring. People and their relatives described how staff were very good at communicating with them. The service was responsive to people's needs and flexible if any changes were needed. People and their relatives knew how to complain or raise any issues about the service, if they needed to.
The service was managed by an experienced registered manager. Everyone told us the service was well- organised. Staff were supported to deliver high-quality care through training, spot checks and supervision. The registered manager and senior staff completed a range of checks on the quality and safety of the service to identify any areas where it needed to improve.
The service had an open, transparent culture. Staff enjoyed their jobs and were all keen to deliver a person- centred service. Staff worked alongside other professionals to help ensure people received effective care
and support.
