5 September 2017

During a routine inspection

We carried out this unannounced inspection on the 5 and 12 September 2017. Burleys Home Care Services provides personal care and support to people in their own homes. At the time of this inspection the agency was providing a service to 33 people with a variety of care needs, including people living with physical frailty or memory loss due to the progression of age. The agency is managed from a centrally located office base in Ringwood.

The service had a registered manager. A registered manager is a person who has registered with the Care Quality Commission to manage the service. Like registered providers, they are ‘registered persons’. Registered persons have legal responsibility for meeting the requirements in the Health and Social Care Act 2008 and associated Regulations about how the service is run.
