About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 3 December 2021. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Bluewood Loughborough is a domiciliary care service. The service provides personal care to people living in their own homes. At the time of the inspection there were 14 people using the service.
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
People were protected from abuse and risks were assessed so that care and support was provided in a safe way. Staff teams were small so that people had a consistent team who knew them well and understood their needs. Staff always wore personal protective equipment and followed infection control procedures to protect people from the risk of infections.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
Staff had the training and support required to meet people's needs and keep them safe. Managers were approachable and accessible to people and staff.
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.
Care and support was person centred and based on people's individual needs and preferences. People and relatives praised the staff and said they were competent, kind and respectful. Staff upheld people's human rights and considered, and respected people's equality and diversity needs.
There was a registered manager in post. Relevant legal requirements were understood and met, including CQC registration requirements. Quality monitoring processes were effective. The provider sought feedback from people, relatives and staff and took action to improve in response.
This service was registered with us on 23 April 2020 and this is the first inspection.
