Listening to and involving people

Score: 1

While some of the relatives we spoke to expressed that they were generally happy with the care their loved one received, our assessment found care did not meet the expected standards. A relative told us they did not receive any feedback about the care their loved one received. Relatives were not asked for feedback about the care their loved one received.

The provider could not evidence how they listened or involved people in the service. No action was taken in response to concerns raised and the provider did not analyse information to understand people’s concerns. For example, one person complained that a different staff, to their regular staff attended without notice. There was no information to detail how the provider responded to this concern and if the person was satisfied with the response.

Processes to ensure people and their loved ones were involved in their care, and their voices were heard were ineffective. The provider told us they had obtained feedback from some people and their loved ones. However, the information we reviewed was completed by the same staff member, and all the relatives gave the same or similar responses. There was no review of the information provided to implement improvements. The provider’s complaints procedures were ineffective. The provider did not use concerns as an opportunity to improve the service.
