About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 17 December 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Compassion First Care Ltd is a care at home service providing personal care to people within their own homes or flats. At the time of our inspection there were 15 people using the service. 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

Quality assurance tools had not always identified areas of improvement required. Improvements were ongoing to the quality assurance processes as the registered manager had purchased a new auditing system. The registered manager had not notified CQC as required of all safeguarding referrals they had made.
