Surrey Quality Care is a domiciliary care agency providing personal care to people living in their own homes. At the time of the inspection the service was supporting 18 people with a variety of health needs and some people living with dementia. Not everyone who used the service received personal care. 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 felt safe being supported by Surrey Quality Care. There were enough staff in place to meet people's needs. People were safeguarded against the risk of abuse and supported at regular times by a consistent staff team who understood their needs well.
Detailed assessments of people's needs were carried out before they started to receive care and support. Staff were provided with appropriate training and supervision for their role. Referrals were made to health and social care professionals appropriately when people's needs changed.
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.
Care plans were reflective of people's needs, including the support they needed with their healthcare, medicines, nutrition and personal care. Staff were committed to supporting people to keep as much independence as possible and treated people with dignity and respect.
People received personalised care and the service worked flexibly in order to meet people's needs. Staff said they had enough time to meet people's care and support needs and any complaints were responded to promptly with actions followed up in a timely way.
Feedback from people and their relatives about the way the service was managed was positive and staff told us they were well supported. There were effective systems in place to monitor the quality and safety of the service and the provider was committed to ongoing improvement in the future.
