About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 5 February 2020. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
J and K Care Specialists is a domiciliary care agency providing personal care to 44 people living in their own homes. People had a range of needs, these ranged from older people to people living with a learning disability. Not everyone who used the service received personal care. The Care Quality Commission (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
Since our last inspection, the provider had made improvements to their systems around auditing people's care and medicines records. The registered manager had a good understanding of their role and people told us they were competent and approachable.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
People received good quality care, that was focussed on their specific needs and preferences. Care was consistently delivered by staff who understood people's needs and who had undergone appropriate training in their role.
People were treated with dignity, respect and were involved in the planning and reviewing of their care.
People's needs in relation to healthcare, nutrition and medicines were identified in their care plans. The provider worked with other stakeholders when required to help deliver effective care.
People were protected from the risks of suffering abuse and harm. Risks associated with the delivery of care were assessed and reduced.
There were appropriate systems in place to gain people's consent to 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.
