We found that people were included in decisions about their care needs and that their consent was sought. People's care was planned and delivered in line with their individual needs and preferences. People had detailed, individualised care plans which were kept up to date.
People told us that they felt safe being supported by Aspire Home Care. All staff had received training and information related to safeguarding vulnerable adults to ensure they could identify and address any safeguarding concerns. Staff had full pre-employment checks to ensure they were of good character.
Staff were given appropriate training and support to fulfil their roles safely. All staff had access to mandatory training as well as specialised training related to people's needs.
The provider had an effective system and plan in place to assess and monitor the quality of service that people received.
