About the service: Age UK Calderdale & Kirklees registered in 2018 to provide a domiciliary care service for older people living in Kirklees and Calderdale. At the time of the inspection, they had not commenced the full domiciliary service. They had recently commenced a domiciliary toe nail cutting/foot care service and had provided three people with this service at the time of this inspection. People’s experience of using this service: The provider had developed policies and procedures in preparation for the service to start. The provider had invested in an electronic system. This would enable the registered manager to plan the service, record people’s information and keep essential information about staff. The registered manager was aware of their responsibility to ensure people using the service were protected from harm. Risk assessments had been developed to assess any risks identified and measures to reduce the likelihood of harm would be recorded in care plans and shared with staff. There was a training plan in place to ensure all staff received safeguarding training before providing care. The provider had a programme of essential training for staff refreshed at set intervals. There was a designated person within the organisation to monitor the training requirements of staff and to ensure training was updated. There was a system in place to support staff through supervision and appraisal. There was an audit in place to measure the service against the CQC key lines of enquiry. The registered manager had not yet determined the detail of other audits such as the audit of care plans and medication, but they had commenced the process. Rating at last inspection: The service has not previously been inspected and therefore has not been previously rated. Why we inspected: This was a scheduled inspection based on the date the service registered with CQC. Follow up: The service will be inspected and rated based on our scheduling time frame.
