Summary

FCNA Homecare in Hale is facing major backlash after being rated “inadequate” by the CQC — the lowest possible score — for serious failures in staff hiring, medication management, and legal consent processes. Despite previous warnings, inspectors found outdated records, missed health changes, and no formal system for assessing mental capacity or securing proper consent. While some users praised the staff’s kindness, younger patients and those with learning disabilities reported lower satisfaction, and no clear plan exists to address these gaps.
