All Inspections

During a routine inspection

When we inspected Allied Healthcare on 11 and 16 July 2013, they were providing care packages to approximately 63 people in their own homes. We spoke with ten people who used the service, and found that they were generally satisfied and happy with the care and support they received. One person told us 'They are all really caring."

We noted from the care files that we looked at, that people were offered support at a level which encouraged independence and ensured that their individual needs were met.

People told us that the staff were respectful in their approach and were skilled and competent in their roles. One person told us, "I can always say what I need to and staff do what they are meant to do."

We could see from records that people were encouraged to express their views and were involved in planning their care and making decisions about their care and support. People and staff told us that they felt able to approach the manager to discuss anything, and they were confident that swift action would be taken to resolve any issues they had.
