About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 20 June 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Gevic Care Agency is a domiciliary care service which provides personal care to people living in their own homes. CQC only inspects where people receive support with 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 the inspection there were three people receiving personal care.
What inspectors found
Right Support: Model of Care and setting that maximises people's choice, control and independence. The provider had improved the way they carried out assessments and devised care plans which now contained a good level of detail about people's needs and preferences. Staff communicated with people in ways that met their needs. People were protected from the risk of avoidable harm because the risks to people's health and wellbeing had been assessed and guidelines were in place to ensure staff knew how to mitigate the risks.
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.

Right Care: Care is person-centred and promotes people's dignity, privacy and human rights The service had enough appropriately skilled staff to meet people's needs and keep them safe. People's communication needs were now being assessed and there were guidelines in place to help support better communication between people and care staff. There was information recorded about people's backgrounds, likes and dislikes to ensure staff had a good understanding of people.
Right Culture: The ethos, values, attitudes and behaviours of leaders and care staff ensure people using services lead confident, inclusive and empowered lives. People and their family members were positive about the caring nature of the staff. People told us they were always treated with dignity and respect. Staff were positive about the support they received to fulfil their role.
