Reable Health Ltd is a domiciliary care agency providing care to people in their own homes in Oxfordshire and the surrounding area. At the time of our inspection 2 people were receiving the regulated activity of personal care from the service. Not everyone using the service received personal care. CQC only inspects where people receive personal care, which 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 were protected from abuse and harm. Staff knew how to report any concerns relating to people’s safety and the service had systems to report and investigate concerns. Risk assessments identified how potential risks should be managed to reduce the likelihood of people experiencing harm. Staff understood the risks to people and delivered safe care in accordance with people's support plans. There were sufficient staff deployed to keep people safe and meet their needs. At the time of the inspection the registered manager carried out the majority of support visits. People told us staff were punctual and no one we spoke with had experienced a missed visit. The service aimed to ensure only suitable staff were selected to work with vulnerable people, and checks were carried out to allow safe recruitment decisions to be made.
Each staff member had received an induction and training to enable them to meet people's needs effectively. We saw that supervision meetings were planned, and spot checks were conducted for staff who told us they felt supported by the registered manager to perform their role. People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff provided them with care in the least restrictive way possible and acted in their best interests; the policies and systems in the service promoted this practice.
People's care plans were person-centred and focused on what was important to people. Care plans were regularly reviewed, and people were involved in the reviews.
People, relatives and staff spoke highly of the management; they found them approachable and supportive. Staff were given appropriate responsibility which was continuously monitored and checked by the manager. There were systems to monitor, maintain and improve the quality of the service.
