About the service Tempnur Care Limited is a domiciliary care agency, providing personal care to people living in their own homes. At the time of our inspection three people were using the service. 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.
People's experience of using this service and what we found
People told us they were happy with the care they received from Tempnur Care. People received a service which was person-centred and met their needs. Risks associated with people’s needs had been identified and were managed safely. Staff had a good understanding of the provider’s safeguarding process and knew what action to take if they suspected any abuse.
Before people started to use the service, their individual needs and preferences were discussed and recorded for staff to follow. People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible and in their best interests; the policies and systems in the service supported this practice.
The provider carried out checks on the suitability of staff before they started work. Staff had appropriate skills to meet people's needs. People told us care staff were suitably trained and records showed staff received training appropriate to their role.
People received their medicines as prescribed. People had support to prepare their meals and drinks where needed. The team worked effectively with community health and social care professionals to ensure people's needs were met.
The provider ensured staff wore appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and were mindful about infection prevention and control. There were systems in place to learn lessons from accidents and incidents.
People felt they could raise concerns and would be listened to. There were systems in place to monitor the quality and safety of the service and recognise when improvements were needed. The provider sought feedback from people, their relatives, staff and other professionals. This feedback was used to develop the service.
