About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 20 November 2020. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Dimensions Worcestershire and Oxfordshire is a domiciliary care service providing personal care and supported living services for people with learning disabilities or autistic spectrum disorder. The provider currently supports 176 people living in their own homes and in supported living settings in the community. We inspected one of the supported living services where four people were living.

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

People received their medicines as prescribed by trained staff who regularly had their competencies assessed.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Infection prevention measures had been established. Staff had a good understanding of these procedures and confirmed they were provided with sufficient supplies of PPE.

The registered manager had quality assurance systems in place to monitor the overall quality of the service provided to people. These systems had led to improvements in the quality of the service being provided to people.

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.

We expect health and social care providers to guarantee autistic people and people with a learning disability the choices, dignity, 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 providing support to people with a learning disability and/or autistic people.

The service was able to demonstrate how they were meeting the underpinning principles of Right support, right care, right culture.

The service was able to demonstrate how they were meeting the underpinning principles of right support, right care, right culture. The management had developed a person-centred approach to each person's care and support.
