Hopecare and Health Limited

“Date of assessment: 17 to 19 February 2026. Hopecare and Health Limited is a Domiciliary Care Agency, providing support and personal care to people in their own homes. Staff supported people of varying ages with different health needs. At the time of our assessment 22 people were receiving support from the service. We carried out this assessment due to the rating of requires improvement and previous breaches of regulation. At our last assessment we were concerned about safe care and treatment and governance. At this assessment improvements had been made. The service was no longer in breach of regulations and are now rated good.”

“People were safe. Risks posed to people were assessed and mitigated. People were safeguarded from the risk of abuse and staff told us they felt comfortable to whistle-blow on poor practice. Some improvements were required to ensure people had their capacity appropriately assessed. However, people’s records contained details about people’s advanced decisions and people told us staff sought their consent prior to providing support to them. People were supported in their own homes, risks to the environment were assessed and staff ensured people’s homes were kept secure. People told us staff promoted infection, prevention and control (IPC), and the management team undertook regular staff spot checks to ensure staff adhered to IPC policies and procedures. Accidents and incidents were appropriately recorded and monitored, to learn lessons from these. Staff were recruited safely and received training to enable them to effectively carry out their roles.”
