Overall Experience3.0 out of 5
The actual carers are helpful and try their best to carry out their duties, but as for the organisation of their office, it is absolute rubbish. My wife, who is disabled, doesn't know who is coming through the door or at what time. Morning calls can vary from 07.15 to 08.30, calls are not evenly spread
i.e. four hours apart. The company puts an extreme amount of pressure on the staff by not giving them time to travel from one client to the next. They also don't get break periods. The workload seems to change by the hour and often get sessions where they are waiting around for the next booked client (sometimes two to three hours) without being paid. In my opinion, it is no wonder this agency gets through so many staff. There just isn't any consistency with this company.

This is my first experience of using a care agency. I appreciate that carers can only do so much. Saying that it does feel a bit like Care Outlook, not necessarily the carers themselves, treat their clients as commodities. It is ‘soft touch’, ‘clock in clock out’ mentality rather than actually encouraging
the carers to make progress with their clients. I would like to see a real improvement over the coming week to see proper care taking place.

Inspection ratings
We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
Outstanding - the service is performing exceptionally well.
Good - the service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
Requires improvement - the service isn't 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 enforcement action against the provider of the service.
No rating/under appeal/rating suspended - there are some services which we can't rate, while some might be under appeal from the provider. Suspended ratings are being reviewed by us and will be published soon.
Ticks and crosses
We don't rate every type of service. For services we haven't rated we use ticks and crosses to show whether we've asked them to take further action or taken enforcement action against them.
There's no need for the service to take further action. If this service has not had a CQC inspection since it registered with us, our judgement may be based on our assessment of declarations and evidence supplied by the service.
The service must make improvements.
At least one standard in this area was not being met when we inspected the service and we have taken enforcement action.
