From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 1 August 2019. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
United Response – Huddersfield provides both a domiciliary care service and a supported living service to people living in their own homes.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
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. At the time of the inspection, five people were receiving domiciliary care. The service provided a supported living service to 14 people in five individual homes.
The service has been developed and designed in line with the principles and values that underpin Registering the Right Support and other best practice guidance. This ensures that people who use the service can live as full a life as possible and achieve the best possible outcomes. The principles reflect the need for people with learning disabilities and/or autism to live meaningful lives that include control, choice, and independence. People using the service receive planned and co-ordinated person-centred support that is appropriate and inclusive for them.
