About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 11 February 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Galiant Health Care Almondsbury is a domiciliary care agency providing care to people in their own homes. 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 the inspection there were 22 people receiving support with personal care.
What inspectors found
The service had made improvements since our last inspection and was no longer in breach of regulation. Improvements had been made in relation to how the service was monitored and audited.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
People using the service were safe. There were recruitment processes in place to ensure new staff were suitable for their roles and people told us they built positive relationships with staff. There were risk assessments and care plans in place to guide staff in providing safe support for people. When people had particular support needs, staff were given training to ensure they were able to deliver the person's care safely and effectively.
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.
The service was well led and person centred in nature. People's views were sought and taken in to consideration and any issues or concerns responded to promptly. Staff were well trained and supported in their roles.
