Date of assessment: 19 May 2025 to 23 May 2025
This assessment was carried out to follow up on action we told the provider to take at the last inspection.
Storm Homecare Limited is a domiciliary care agency providing personal care to people living in their own homes. The service provides support to older adults, younger disabled adults, people with a long-term mental health condition, and people with a learning disability or autistic people.
The provider was previously in breach of the legal regulation in relation to consent to care, safe care and treatment, safeguarding, staffing, fit and proper persons and good governance. Improvements were found at this assessment and the provider was no longer in breach of this regulation.
People received the right support, at the right time, and in a safe manner.
The care and support from staff had made significant improvements to people’s quality of life. The service promoted good health and wellbeing outcomes for people, including supporting people to have access to medical appointments and worked in collaboration with a range of medical partners.
The service had a positive culture, with staff who enjoyed working with the people they supported, and for Storm Homecare. Staff were very respectful and aware they were supporting people living in their own home.
We have assessed the service against ‘Right support, right care, right culture’ guidance to make judgements about whether the provider guaranteed people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices, independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted.
