TESTIMONIALS OUR TEAM OUR OFFICE TEAM CONTACT Testimonials Discover the first-hand experiences of the people who use our service. Their words highlight the compassionate care and support we provide, offering a glimpse into how we make a meaningful difference in the lives of our clients and their families. Parent Testimonial “As a parent of a child with special needs, finding the right support and care for my child has always been a priority. The services provided by Westwood Homecare have been nothing short of life-changing. The team is incredibly compassionate, patient, and understanding. They take the time to truly understand each child’s unique needs, tailoring their approach to provide the best possible care and support. My child has been more settled and engaging since we started using these services. With the carers, I feel my child is safe, valued, and enjoys his time out. What sets Westwood apart is the unwavering commitment to empowering both children and their families. They’ve given us the help and encouragement we needed to help our child thrive. I cannot recommend their services enough for any family navigating the challenges of raising a child with special needs. They truly make a difference!” Social Worker Testimonial I am a Children with Disability Social Worker. I use Westwood Homecare to support a couple of young people on my case load who have complex needs. Westwood Homecare have been integral in ensuring children have their needs met, risks reduced at home and importantly support parents in their caring role. Westwood works in partnership with families to accommodate needs and make changes when needed. Approachable and competitively priced service. Parent Testimonial Everything is going really well for me, thanks to the carers, Amy, and Raymond, who truly listen to my perspective and make an effort to understand our needs. My children, face challenges with communication and use different methods at school and home. One communicates using symbols and photos on a blackboard, while the other relies on a symbol book. At home, however, they both use gestures, actions, and choices to express themselves, which the carers have adapted to seamlessly. Both of my children have unique personalities and preferences—one is more active, and the carer keeps him engaged and moving, while the other enjoys quieter activities, which the carers accommodate. In the past, other carers struggled to understand my children’s needs and communication styles, often leading to frustration. Westwood carers, however, are patient and genuinely work to understand my children’s feelings. Beyond the carers, Amy and Raymond have been a tremendous help, speaking with our social worker and finding additional ways to support us. Whenever I need to step out, I feel completely reassured knowing my children are safe, happy, and well cared for at home. Family Member Testimonial Fantastic team who supported us through an extremely difficult time, professional, respectful and extremely efficient. Would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Yes, WHC offers a range of accredited courses which are mandatory for all employees to complete: • Medication • Pressure Ulcer Awareness • Catheter and Stoma Awareness • Level 2 Principles of End-of-Life Care • Level 2 Moving and Handling of People • Level 2 Positive Behavioural Approach Does the Care Certificate replace staff induction? No. The Care Certificate is part of a structured induction but does not replace all of the learning required for staff induction. As well as the Care Certificate standards new staff will be expected to have information, knowledge and competencies specific to the environment in which care will be provided. For example, new staff may receive information on how to report accidents, and what to do in case of fire which will be specific to the location in which they work. The Care Certificate programme will not focus on the skills and knowledge needed to work safely and effectively in a particular location. The content of this remains the employer’s responsibility. Is the award of the Care Certificate based only on knowledge? No, to be awarded the Care Certificate the person must acquire knowledge and demonstrate competence in all 15 standards. Assessment of knowledge and understanding is prefixed with verbs such as ‘describe’, ‘explain’, ‘define’, ‘list’ or ‘identify’ and can be based upon written or verbal evidence such as a workbook, written questions, case studies or sound files. Evidence of performance prefixed with words such as ‘demonstrate’, ‘take steps to’, ‘use’ or ‘show’ must be undertaken in the workplace during learners’ real work activity and observed by the assessor (unless the use of simulation is specifically allowed). Learners can practice and develop their skills in a classroom or similar setting but most of the assessment evidence must be collected during real work activity. What does the Care Certificate Cover? The Care Certificate consists of the following 15 Standards: 1. Understand Your Role 2. Your Personal Development 3. Duty of Care 4. Equality and Diversity 5. Work in a Person-Centred Way 6. Communication 7. Privacy and Dignity 8. Fluids and Nutrition 9. Awareness of Mental Health, Dementia and Learning Disabilities 10. Safeguarding Adults 11. Safeguarding Children 12. Basic Life Support 13. Health and Safety 14. Handling Information 15. Infection Prevention and Control How long does it take to complete the Care Certificate? During the piloting of the Care Certificate in 2014, the indication was that for a full-time member of staff, the average amount of time taken to complete the Care Certificate was 12 weeks. It is likely that employers will find that the time taken to complete the certificate will vary depending upon a range of factors, including; the hours worked by the learner, teaching methods chosen, previous educational achievement, resources and opportunities for assessment, and the availability of assessors What is the Care Certificate? The Care Certificate is an identified set of standards that health and social care workers adhere to in their daily working life. Designed with the non-regulated workforce in mind, the Care Certificate gives everyone the confidence that workers have the same introductory skills, knowledge and behaviours to provide compassionate, safe and high quality care and support. What is end of life and palliative care? End of life and palliative care aims to help you if you have a life-limiting or life-threatening illness. The focus of this type of care is managing symptoms and providing comfort and assistance. This includes help with emotional and mental health, spiritual and social needs. End of life and palliative care provides practical help with daily tasks as well. The goal is to improve your quality of life and that of your family, friends and carers. End of life and palliative care is based on what your needs are, not your diagnosis. If you have an illness that cannot be cured and will lead to the end of your life, end of life and palliative care will be suggested.

The frequency of a CQC inspection is dependent on the care provider’s rating. Good and Outstanding: Normally within 30 months of the last inspection report being published Requires Improvement: Normally within 12 months of the last report being published Inadequate: Normally within 6 months of the last report being published New services: The first inspection will normally be scheduled between 6 to 12 months from the date of registration Who are CQC? They are the Care Quality Commissioning group which is an independent regulator of health and social care in England. They make sure that health and social care services provide people with safe, effective, compassionate, high-quality care and they encourage care services to improve. CQC monitors, inspects and regulates services to make sure they meet fundamental standards of quality and safety. CQC publishes their findings, including performance ratings to help people choose where they receive their care from. Will I lose all choice and control, and my independence? No, WHC ensures all service users are able to exercise genuine control over their care and we support working together with our staff, local communities, health and social care organisations to co-design person-centred support packages. We have an asset-based approach to maximise people’s independence by building on their abilities and aspirations. What is person-centred care? You are at the centre of planning and decision-making around your end of life and palliative care Your individual, cultural and religious needs are considered when care is planned You are treated in the way you want to be treated Your preferences and values are recognised and respected You are treated with respect and dignity whatever your age, cultural background, religion or sexual orientation. By responding to your needs and those of your family in this way, your care team can help you make the most of each day. What are WHC’s Values? Care and Compassion Trust and Respect Deliver and Achieve What does each CQC rating mean? • Outstanding The service is performing exceptionally well. • Good The service is performing well and meeting our expectations. • Requires improvement The service is not performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve. • Inadequate The service is performing badly and we’ve taken action against the person or organisation that runs it. Do all care providers have to register with the CQC? Any care provider that offers regulated activities as listed in Schedule 1 of the Health and Social Care Act (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2012 must be registered with the CQC. This includes several activities including personal care, nursing care and accommodation for a person requiring nursing or personal care. If you are providing care in a person’s home, you need to register with the CQC. How often do WHC’s Employees get paid? WHC are committed to paying all employees on a weekly basis. What is Domiciliary Care? Domiciliary care is provided to people who still live in their own homes but require additional support with activities, including household tasks, personal care and any other activity that allows them to maintain their independence and quality of life. What happens at a CQC inspection? Domiciliary care (home care) inspections are normally announced 48 hours in advance so that a manager or senior in charge is available on the day. An inspector or inspection team will use key lines of enquiry to gather evidence and information to support their inspection. The key lines of enquiry are five questions that the CQC uses to regulate care and ensure people are at the heart of the care service. These five areas are: • Are they safe? • Are they effective? • Are they caring? • Are they responsive to people’s needs? • Are they well-led? Evidence and information gathering will take the form of interviews with staff, service users, friends and family, reviewing feedback forms, observing care, reviewing records, documents and policies, and looking at care pathways. What contracts do WHC hold and who are the professionals they work with? WHC work with a range of professionals and hold many contracts, such as: • Manchester CCG – Manchester Clinical Commissioning Group • Manchester City Council, Learning Disability Team • Manchester Local Authority • Stockport CCG – Stockport Clinical Commissioning Group • Bolton City Council • Knowsley City Council • Liverpool CCG – Liverpool Clinical Commissioning Group Do I need to have experience to work at WHC?
