About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 11 March 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Trinity Care Services Limited is a domiciliary care agency providing personal care. The service provides support to people living in their own homes in the community. 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. At the time of our inspection the service was providing personal care to 40 people.
What inspectors found
People were safe using the service. Staff had received training to safeguard people from abuse and knew when and how to report safeguarding concerns to the relevant agencies. Staff understood how to manage risks to people to keep them safe. The provider carried out recruitment and criminal records checks on staff to make sure they were suitable to support people.
There were enough staff to support people. Staff attended care calls on time and people were supported by regular staff so that the care they received was consistent.
