About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 14 July 2021. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
MSH Health Care provides personal care to people in their own homes. The service is based in Dalton-in- Furness and provides support to people in the Furness, South Lakeland and Allerdale districts of Cumbria. Not everyone who used the service received personal care. CQC only inspects where people receive a regulated activity. 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 98 people were receiving personal care.
