About the service:

Cambridgeshire Reablement Service North (Cambourne Team) is a short term reablement, domiciliary care service that was providing personal care to 32 people at the time of the inspection.

People’s experience of using this service:

People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible.

People were happy with the care and support they received from staff. Staff encouraged people to complete tasks independently, or with minimal support where possible. This support from staff was in place with the aim of enabling people to be independent again following a stay in hospital or illness. Staff assisted people in a caring and compassionate way.

Staff knew about safeguarding people from harm or poor care. Staff knew how to report their concerns internally and externally to local safeguarding authorities.

Staff undertook a pre-assessment on people new to the service. This established what reablement support a person required and whether staff were trained to meet these needs. People were involved in their care decisions and the planning of their day-to-day care. Risks to people’s health and well-being were identified and monitored. Guidance and training was in place for staff on how to support people with these risks. This included a health and safety and an environment risk assessment which gave information to staff in the case of an emergency such as a fire.

Staff respected and promoted people`s dignity and privacy. Staff supported people with their prescribed medicines safely. People were supported by staff with their food and drink to make sure they were eating and drinking.

People`s personal information was confidentially stored within the office. People, their relatives and advocates were involved in discussions about their care.

There were enough staff to meet people`s needs and people received their care calls on time. People were kept safe from risks of infection and cross contamination. There was a robust recruitment process and new staff received a thorough induction Staff received supervision from their line manager and training to ensure that they could effectively carry out their role. Staff learnt lessons from incidents and near misses that happened to help reduce the risk of the incident happening again.

Staff worked with other external organisations to help support and promote people’s well-being. Staff gave people information in different formats, when needed, such as picture aids to aid people with their understanding. Staff signposted people to different agencies and organisations that could support them. For example, organisations that could help support people with their welfare benefit entitlements, with specialist small aid equipment to assist people with day-today tasks such as getting dressed and a befriending service to support people who felt isolated.

People, their relatives, and advocates gave feedback on the quality of the service provided. People knew how to raise a complaint and their concerns were listened to, investigated and resolved where possible. The provider`s governance systems and processes had identified areas of the service where improvements were needed and these were acted on. The registered manager and staff completed internal audits to ensure the service provided to people was effective and safe.
