About the service: Khepera Business Centre is a domiciliary care service which provides personal care to adults with a range of support needs in their own homes. The Care Quality Commission (CQC) only inspects the service being received by people provided with ‘personal care’. Where they do we also take into account any wider social care provided. Khepera Business Centre was providing personal care to one person at the time of the inspection.
The person who used the service and the staff all referred to the service as Mirai Management. The provider planned to apply to CQC to formally change the name to Mirai Management.
