They offer emergency call services directly linked to staff on site who are available 24 hours a day. There are currently providing domiciliary support to 16 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’.
