What inspectors found
From the Care Quality Commission's assessment published 13 October 2026 (assessment visit 1 October 2026). Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Date of inspection: 6 October to 13 October 2026.
Ambar Care Ltd provides personal and nursing care and support to people who require assistance in their own home. This service is a domiciliary care agency. At the time of our assessment 7 people were being supported by the service. The Care Quality Commission (CQC) only inspects where people receive personal care. This is help with tasks related to personal hygiene and eating. We also consider any wider social care provided.

This inspection was completed to follow up in respect of the last inspection completed in March 2026, when the service was rated requires improvement and found to be in breach of Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 relating to safe care and treatment and good governance.
At this inspection, we found improvements had been made since March 2026 to address the previous concerns identified. The provider was no longer in breach of these regulations and evidence indicated that the improvements had been sustained over time and were being actively maintained through the service's governance and oversight processes.
Care and treatment was planned and delivered in a way which was intended to ensure people's safety and welfare.
At the time of the assessment, the service was not supporting any autistic people or people with a learning disability, but the provider had regard to ‘Right support, right care, right culture.’
The registered manager had oversight of the service, they had encouraged a culture of learning and development. There were systems in place to monitor and review care and people’s experience at the service.
