About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 15 October 2019. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Tramways Offices (known as and referred to in this summary and the full report as Bluebird Care Rochdale) is a domiciliary care provider providing support to adults and children. 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 supporting 23 people who received personal care.

What inspectors found

People felt secure and confident in the service's ability to keep them safe. Staff understood safeguarding procedures and risk assessments were comprehensive. There were enough staff to meet people's needs and systems ensured that they had been recruited safely. Procedures ensured medicines were well managed where people required assistance with this.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Care and support was provided by trained staff who understood the needs and wishes of people, and how they liked to be supported. Regular supervision ensured that they remained aware of current guidance and best practice. People told us that they were always offered choices in how their care was provided.

People were treated with respect by kind and caring staff. Privacy and dignity were respected, and people were introduced to any new member of staff before they began working with them.

The service was well managed by a registered manager and providers who took an active interest in the service and supported staff and people by providing hands-on care. Systems were in place to monitor the quality of service delivery, and the service was looking at ways this information could be used to determine how the service could improve. Links had been established with other agencies to keep abreast of good practice through the Bluebird network and local forums.
