About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 9 October 2020. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Kells Domiciliary Care Ltd is a domiciliary care agency providing the regulated activity of personal care to people living in their own homes. At the time of the inspection the service was supporting four people.

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

The service had implemented the required improvements since the last inspection.

Recruitment checks were complete and adequately assessed staff suitability to work with vulnerable adults.

Read the full summary

People received their medicines safely and as prescribed by care staff who had been trained and assessed as competent to administer medicines.

Risk assessments and management plans had been compiled to ensure people were supported to remain safe and free from harm. However, the service had not always fully assessed and recorded certain specific individualised risks associated with people's health and medical needs. This was addressed immediately following the inspection.

One person and relatives told us they felt safe and confident with the care and support that they received from their care worker. Care staff had received training on how to recognise abuse and the processes to follow to report their concerns.

Care staff had access to the required personal protective equipment (PPE), information and guidance to prevent and control the spread of infection.

One person and relatives spoke positively about the management of the service, the quality of care delivery and the registered manager who they found to be responsive and accommodating.

Care staff felt supported and valued in their role.

The overall management oversight of the service had improved since the last inspection. The nominated individual and the registered manager had implemented audits and checks to monitor the quality of care and ensure where issues were identified these were addressed.
