About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 24 March 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Birmingham is a community-based care provider that provides personal care to people living in their own homes and supported living settings. At the time of inspection two people were receiving support from 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

One person received support from the service with the regulated activity of personal care on the day of the inspection. We must protect the person's rights to a private life so the report will provide an overview of the care received by the person rather than specific examples.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Risk assessments in place did not contain enough information to guide staff on how to support the person safely, however, staff knew the person using the service well. Medication records had not been completed where medication was being administered and this meant we could not be assured medication was being administered as prescribed.

The provider's audits and oversight of the service had not identified the areas of concern we found during the inspection.

Staff had received training in safeguarding and knew the actions to take to keep people safe. There were recruitment processes in place and recruitment checks were carried out before staff were appointed. This ensured suitable staff were appointed to support people. Staff followed infection control guidance and had access to personal protective equipment.

The person was encouraged to have choice and control of their life and was supported in the least restrictive way possible and in their best interests.

The person received kind and respectful support. Their privacy, dignity and independence were maintained. The person was involved in decisions about their support and life.

The person was supported to have interests, and take part in activities they enjoyed.
