About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 17 December 2020. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Red Rose Care is a domiciliary care agency based in Bamber Bridge on the outskirts of Preston. The agency provides personal care to a wide range of adults in their own homes, including older people, people living with dementia, people with a learning disability or autistic spectrum disorder or a physical disability. At the time of our inspection the service supported 39 people.

What inspectors found

People were safe using Red Rose Care. Systems, processes and practices adopted by the service protected people from harm and safeguarded them from the risk of abuse and discrimination. Potential risks were thoroughly assessed, and medicines were managed safely. One person told us, "I feel safe with the girls [carers] as I hardly have any family. They make me feel safe. I feel as if the carers are in my bubble."

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Particular attention had been given to infection control practices during the pandemic in order to keep those who used the service and the staff team safe. Systems were in place so that lessons were learned when things went wrong.

Robust recruitment practices were in place. The staff team was consistent, and the support provided to people promoted continuity of care. A wide range of training had been provided for the staff team around health and safety matters and safeguarding issues, which helped to ensure people received safe care and treatment.

The management and staff team were open and transparent during the inspection process. A wide range of regular audits and monitoring was taking place. We received very positive feedback about the registered manager and the staff team. Community health and social care professionals had been involved in the care and support of those who used the service.
