Date of inspection: 16 May to 4 June 2025. The assessment was carried out as the service had not been rated since registering. Fixby Healthcare Ltd is a domiciliary care agency. It provides personal care to people living in their own homes.

During our assessment we found 1 breach of regulation in relation to governance. We found the provider had failed to operate effective governance systems to ensure there was oversight of the service.

During our assessment we found issues within records relating to medicines, risk and mental capacity assessments which had not been identified by the provider. We have asked the provider for an action plan in response to the concerns found at this assessment.
