The inspection record
Rated Good overall. Report published 10 February 2025.
“Companion Homecare provides personal care to people in their own homes. The service is based in Preston and also provides support to people living in the Morecambe area. Not everyone who used the service received personal care. CQC only inspects where people receive personal care. This is help with tasks related to personal hygiene and eating. Where they do, we also consider any wider social care provided.”
“The inspection was prompted in part due to concerns received. A decision was made for us to inspect.”
