Statement Upheld Domiciliary care 06-Jul-2025
Summary: Mrs X complained about the care and support Mr Y received. We find the care provider at fault for billing Mr Y for support hours he did not receive and for delays in responding to Mrs X. The care provider has agreed to apologise, refund the overcharged care hours, and make a symbolic payment to recognise the frustration caused.

Statement Upheld Domiciliary care 24-Jun-2025
Summary: Mrs H complained a Care Provider wrongly told her that her mother, Mrs G, would not have to pay for care she received at home for six weeks. We did not uphold the complaint. While there was some evidence to support Mrs H’s account and some poor complaint handling by the Provider, this did not cause Mrs G or Mrs H an injustice.

Midshires Care Limited (24 017 966)
Statement Not upheld Domiciliary care 22-Jun-2025
Summary: Mr X complained about a live in carer’s treatment of Mr Y following an accusation Mr Y had used a racial slur towards the carer. Mr X complained the carer was negligent and deliberately mistreated and isolated Mr Y in his own home, causing him a great deal of distress. We have ended our investigation as we cannot achieve a worthwhile outcome from further investigation as we are unlikely to be able to achieve the remedy Mr X wants.

Summary: We will not investigate Miss X’s complaint about the Care Provider’s handling of her grandmother’s care.

We could not add to the Care Provider’s responses by investigating the matter further.

Liverpool City Council (24 018 908)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Domiciliary care 10-Jun-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Ms X’s complaint about her treatment by the Council and its care provider. This is mainly because there is not enough evidence of fault. We will not investigate the care provided for Ms X’s relative because Ms X is not a suitable representative.

Promedica24 (Lancashire) Limited (24 006 336)
Statement Not upheld Domiciliary care 09-Jun-2025
Summary: Mr A complained that the care provider failed to keep his mother Mrs X safe in her home. In particular he complains that the live-in carer was unaware Mrs X had left the house alone in the night, or had put liquid soap in her own food. The evidence shows the care provider took appropriate action to address the incidents but the family chose to terminate the contract.
