Kirklees Council – South Short Term and Urgent Support Team provide a reablement and rapid response service. The reablement service provides people with support for up to 6 weeks to help them live independently at home. At the time of our inspection there were 109 people receiving support with personal care from the service.
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.
