About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 28 June 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Ann Mason Care provides personal care to adults with a range of support needs who are living in their own homes. There are three types of service on offer; Homecare, Respite and Reablement and Live in Care. There were 33 people using the service. 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, relatives and staff were all positive about their experiences with this care service. People told us that they had reliable support that was centred on them and gave them a better quality of life.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

People said that they had a small group of staff that knew them, their situation and their support networks well. People felt safe and trusted the staff that supported them, because staff were well trained and respectful. Risks were appropriately assessed, which then led to assessments being put into place to guide staff on how to keep people safe.

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.

No one had any complaints or concerns, but if they did they were confident that the registered manager would listen and resolve matters. People knew of the registered manager and spoke highly of their dedication and visibility. There were systems in place to protect people from harm. Staff were trained in how to recognise and respond to abuse and understood their responsibility to report any concerns to the registered manager.

Care records were on a new electronic system that had many functions and could also lead to better management oversight and monitoring of service delivery. The registered manager was committed to providing high quality care and the service worked well in partnership with others to ensure the best outcomes for people.
