16th June 2016 - During a routine inspection
![]() Evolve Supporting Prospects is a domiciliary care agency which at the time of our inspection was providing personal care to 67 people who lived in their own homes. This was an announced inspection which took place on 16 and 17 June 2016. In line with our current methodology we contacted the service two days before our inspection and told them of our plans to carry out a comprehensive inspection. This was because the location provides a domiciliary care service and we needed to be sure that the registered manager would be at the office. The service has a registered manager who was present on the day of our inspection. 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. Staff had received training in safeguarding adults. They were able to tell us of the action they would take to protect people who used the service from the risk of abuse. They told us they would also be confident to use the whistleblowing procedure in the service to report any poor practice they might observe. They told us they were certain any concerns they raised would be taken seriously by the managers in the service. Robust recruitment procedures were in place which ensured staff had been safely recruited. Staff received the induction and training they needed to carry out their roles effectively. Staff had regular supervisions and team meetings and told us they felt very well supported by the organisation and managers from the service. People who used the service and their relatives told us they felt safe with staff from Evolve Supporting Prospects. Care records contained assessments which were detailed and showed what support the person required and how the service planned to provide it. The assessment process ensured staff could meet people’s needs. The assessments were used to develop care plans and risk assessments. Care records were person centred and contained very detailed risk assessments that guided staff on what action they might need to take to identify, manage and minimise risks in order to promote people’s safety and independence. Staff received training in administration of medicines and systems in place ensured people received their medicines safely. The provider was working within the principles of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (MCA). Staff were able to tell us how they supported people to make their own decisions. The managers in the service were aware of the process to follow should a person lack the capacity to consent to their care. Records we looked at showed that people who used the service or where appropriate their representatives had given consent to the support they were receiving. People told us they had been consulted about their care records and felt involved in how their care was provided. People we spoke with told us the service was reliable, visits were never missed and staff were rarely late. People we spoke with told us the service was well managed and well organised. One person told us, “They are the best agency we have ever had.” All the people we spoke with were very positive about the caring attitude of staff and managers from the service. People told us that staff were flexible and supported them responsively. All the staff and managers we spoke with demonstrated a commitment to providing good quality person centred care. Staff were trained in safe food hygiene and nutrition. Where necessary people who used the service received support from staff to ensure their nutritional needs were met. Care records we looked at contained fact sheets about people’s health conditions. These gave staff information that would let them know facts about the medical conditions and how best to care for someone. People told us they felt the service
