About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 1 May 2020. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Snowdrop Home Care provides personal care to people living either in their own home or the home of a family member. At the time of the inspection, approximately 21 people used the service and a registered manager was in post. 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
People and relatives were very satisfied with the service people received and spoke highly of staff and the registered manager. People were supported by a small team of staff that understood their needs. People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible; the policies and systems in the service supported this practice.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
People's healthcare needs were being met and medicines were being managed safely.
People were protected against avoidable harm, abuse, neglect and discrimination. The care they received was safe.
People's likes, preferences and dislikes were assessed, and care packages met people's desired expectations. Care plans were up to date and detailed what care and support people wanted and needed. Risk assessments were in place and showed what action had been taken to mitigate identified risks.
Staff were being recruited safely and there were enough staff to take care of people. Staff were receiving appropriate training and they told us the training was good and relevant to their role. Staff were supported by the registered manager and were receiving formal supervision where they could discuss their ongoing development needs.
Everyone spoke highly of the registered manager who they said was approachable and supportive. The provider had effective systems in place to monitor the quality of care provided and where issues were identified, they acted to make improvements. There was a complaints procedure in place and people knew how to complain. The provider and registered manager understood the regulatory requirements and monitored the quality and safety of the service on a regular basis.
