25th September 2017 - During a routine inspection
The inspection took place on the 25, 26 and 27 September 2017 and was announced. St George's Home Care is a domiciliary care service providing care and support for people living in their own homes. They provided approximately 578 hours of care to 101 people at the time of our inspection. The service provided support to both young and older people some of whom may be living with dementia. They also supported people living with physical disabilities and sensory impairment. St George's Home Care also provide 24 hour live in care for a small number of people. The service had a registered manager. A registered manager is a person who has registered with the Care Quality Commission to manage the service. Like registered providers, they are ‘registered persons’. Registered persons have legal responsibility for meeting the requirements in the Health and Social Care Act 2008 and associated Regulations about how the service is run. People were safe because staff understood their role and responsibilities to keep them safe from harm.
Staff had a good knowledge of the provider’s whistleblowing policy and procedures which meant they were able to raise concerns to protect people from unsafe care. Recruitment processes were robust to make sure people were cared for by suitable staff.
There were sufficient numbers of staff deployed to meet people’s needs. People were supported by staff who received regular training and support to help them provide effective care. People were supported by staff that promoted their independence, respected their dignity and maintained their privacy. Care plans reflected people's individual needs and preferences and were regularly reviewed to ensure that they continued to meet people's needs. Risks to people had been assessed and reviewed regularly to ensure people’s individual needs were being met safely. Staff understood the requirements of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and their responsibilities to ensure that people who were unable to make their own decisions about their care and support were protected. There was an effective complaints system in place. People told us they were confident to raise any issues about their care and that they would be listened to and addressed. People told us the service was well-led and managed by an effective and organised management team.
Systems were in place to monitor and improve the quality of the service provided.
