About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 6 January 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Carebank Healthcare Northampton is a domiciliary care agency providing personal care to people in their own homes. At the time of inspection, the service was supporting four people.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

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

Systems in place to monitor the quality, safety and performance of the service needed to be embedded before we could fully assess their effectiveness.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Risks to people's care were assessed but there was a lack of detailed information for new staff to follow to mitigate the risk identified. We have made a recommendation about risk management planning.

People were cared for safely. Safe recruitment practices were in place and staff understood their responsibilities to keep people safe from harm or abuse. People received their medicines safely and there were effective practices in place to protect people from infection.

People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff them in the least restrictive way possible and in their best interests; the policies and systems in the service supported this practice.

The provider was open and honest and listened to people, taking action when necessary. They liaised with other health and social care professionals and were committed to providing person-centred care.
