During a routine inspection
Orison Health Ltd is a domiciliary care service providing personal care to people in their own houses and flats in the community. The service is based in Barnsley. At the time of our inspection there were 3 people using the service. 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.
