You Before Me Care is a domiciliary care service registered to provide personal care to individuals living in their own homes.At the time of our assessment there were 9 people receiving a regulated activity. CQC only inspects where people receive personal care. Personal care is help with tasks related to personal hygiene and eating. Where they do provide personal care, we also consider any wider social care provided during our assessment. This was a responsive assessment. During the assessment we spoke with staff, people and their relatives and other stakeholders such as health and social care professionals to get their feedback about how people’s personal care needs were being met.
