OVERVIEW

OASIS Care and Training Agency has demonstrated remarkable resilience and strategic growth in the 2023-2024 financial year, despite facing significant challenges in the social care sector. The organisation achieved an operating surplus of £52,9633, representing 0.46% of income, which exceeded the forecasted £135,000. This negative financial outcome is a testament to the agency's highly competitive environment and the wider economic downturn.

Total revenue for the year increased by 7.55% to £11,377,322, reflecting successful diversification efforts and expansion into new service areas. The OASIS Workforce Solutions division, in particular, showed exceptional growth, with revenue reaching £10.30 million, primarily driven by successful penetration into the transport industry. This strategic move has significantly contributed to reducing the agency's reliance on traditional domiciliary care services.

OASIS Training also experienced substantial growth, with a 31.72% increase in income to £628,966.10. The division successfully delivered various programs, including apprenticeships, Adult Education Budget courses, Skills Bootcamps, and Department for Work and Pensions initiatives. This growth in training services not only diversified revenue streams but also contributed to addressing the sector's workforce development needs.

Operationally, OASIS implemented several key improvements throughout the year. The introduction of the People Planner software enhanced care assessment processes, leading to more personalised and efficient care delivery. The agency also fully adopted the new Care Quality Commission (CQC) assessment framework, aligning its processes with the 34 Quality Statements to ensure high standards of care.

Despite these achievements, OASIS faced ongoing challenges, including workforce shortages and increased competition in the sector. However, the agency's proactive approach to these issues, coupled with its strategic diversification, has positioned it well for future growth. The financial projections indicate a promising outlook, with a combined turnover expected to reach £26.05 million by 2026.

CHAIR’S ANNUAL REVIEW

This year has been transformative for Oaiss Care, as we strengthened our foundations for a strong and thriving future to deliver care with purpose. We have invested in our technology and systems and continued our journey to be an improving organisation. The world around us continues to change at an unprecedented pace, and we are responding with purpose, energy and agility as we enter this new era.

Funding for the social care sector remains a challenge. However, we have a general election this year and we have seen its very much on the agenda for new government and in the community about how social care can be funded sustainably. This gives us hope that decades of inattention and inadequate funding can be changed to position the sector as an attractive place to work, and a trustworthy sector for people to receive care as they age.

We are optimistic about a positive shift within the sector following increased wages for some of our care staff as a result of becoming London Living Wage employer for our care workers. We hope that this will flow to all care workers who do important work and ensure the delivery of quality care across our services and attract more people to work in the sector.

Given the difficult circumstances our teams have been working in and continue to do so, it is extremely reassuring that our results in the service user survey revealed that we obtained improvements to the satisfaction rate of service user. The introduction of Operation Manager Debbie Dabreo continues to have a positive ongoing impact. This is an endorsement of the work we have done with colleagues to change our culture through tangible actions, which permit continuous improvements to be made. We recognise that there is still a considerable way to go to make Oasis not only a good place to work, but a great place to develop your career.

Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Chair of Trustee

I firmly believe that positive colleague and service user experience go hand in hand, which is why ensuring our people are happy and supported is crucial. We will continue to work with teams to improve and ensure we support colleague wellbeing as best we can, so in turn they can provide the best care to our service users.

CHAIR’S ANNUAL REVIEW

Our success is also directly linked to the hard work of our team. We have made extraordinary progress this year, and I would like to personally thank every team member for their energy, commitment and consistency in driving our business forward.

This year, our plans for expansion include:

There are also some plans that are in their very early stages, but I look forward to sharing them with you all soon. Finally, I want to thank all my Board member colleagues for their support and sharing constructive concern and challenge to ensure we continued our resolve to deliver on our goals.

I hope this annual report enables you to understand our charity organisation, the key risks to the achievements of our goals and how we have performed over the year. It is also an opportunity to celebrate the dedication and commitment of our colleagues and frontline workers and recognise the safe, caring service that they provide across the capital.

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S REPORT

The past year has been transformative for OASIS Care and Training Agency, marked by significant achievements and strategic developments across our diverse operations.

For the 2023/24 financial year, OASIS Care and Training reported an operating surplus of £52,963, representing 0.46% of income. This is below the forecasted figure of £135,000 due to investment made during the year and demonstrates management commitment to building the future strenght of our organisation. Our total revenue increased by 7.55% to £11,377,322, reflecting our successful diversification strategy and resilience in a competitive environment.

Recognising the evolving landscape of social care, we have implemented a comprehensive strategy to reduce our reliance on domiciliary care. This includes expanding into new areas such as Cleaning/Domestic Services, Sheltered Housing, Care Homes, Flexi Care, Virtual Training Platforms, and specialised Dementia Pathways. Our OASIS Workforce Solutions division has shown remarkable growth, with revenue reaching £10.30 million, primarily due to our successful penetration of the transport industry.

We have made significant strides in enhancing our care assessment processes, adopting new regulatory frameworks, and refining our operational procedures. The introduction of the People Planner software has revolutionised our care assessment system, enabling more personalised and efficient care delivery. We have also fully adopted the new Care Quality Commission (CQC) assessment framework, aligning our processes with the 34 Quality Statements.

Challenges and Future Outlook:

While we face ongoing challenges, including workforce shortages and increased competition, we are well-positioned for future growth. Our financial projections indicate a combined turnover increase to £26.05 million by 2026, driven by expansion in OASIS Workforce Solutions and diversification of OASIS Care services.

We remain committed to our mission of enhancing the quality of life for vulnerable people in London while promoting diversity, quality learning opportunities, and overall social and economic well-being.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS REPORT

Financial performance

The past year has proven once again the enduring strength of our strategic model. We have held our nerve while facing difficult economic circumstances, government indecision and external pressures, by continuing to focus on our Service Users, invest in our people and support our communities in which we serve.

For the 2023/24 financial year Oasis Care and Training is reporting an operating surplus of £52,963 (0.46% of income ), comparing to the prior year’s operating surplus of £198,488 and to the £135,000 forecasted for the year.

In a context of financial and operational uncertainty, this is highly encouraging and indicative of the underlying strength of Oasis Care and Training Agency (OCTA) and the robust way in which the organisation has navigated its way through difficult times experienced throughout the financial year.

Surplus allocation

As with previous years, and in line with the principles underpinning OCTA’s financial strategy, the surplus generated in 2023/24 will be used wholly to sustain investment in infrastructure and the charities objective’s, support the organisations operations, enhance the end service user experience and enable delivery of the organisation objective mission.

Financial Outlook

We face a challenging external environment. However, we currently have three main revenue streams (Oasis Care, Oasis Training and Oasis Workforce Solutions Limited). With three different revenue streams, we are hoping to mitigate any challenges faced in the years to come.

Oasis Workforce Solutions

Oasis Workforce Solutions was set up in April 2021 as separate legal entity owned 100 percent by Oasis Care and Training Agency through Oasis Transport and Recruitment Limited. The inception of Oasis Workforce Solutions was to maximise our capabilities in the recruitment sector within the transport industry and beyond.

In the financial year 2023-2024, Oasis Workforce Solutions Limited has seen revenue reach £10.30m (2022-2023: £9.4m), an increase of almost 10%. This has mainly been down to our successful penetration of the transport industry by supplying PVC drivers. In the financial year, Oasis Workforce has been closely with some of the leading operators in the United Kingdom in providing quality drivers to complement permanent drivers of these operators.

Oasis Care Branches

During the financial year 2023-2024, OCTA revenue has mainly been derived from the care element of the organisation (94%). OCTA has three different branches (Oasis South, Oasis West and Oasis Central) and below shows how revenue has been distributed between the branches for 2022-2023.

For 2023-2024, The three branches have seen an increase in revenue generated across the board. Management are on course to achieving Oasis West and Oasis Central having a fair share of revenue and income to be more evenly distributed across Oasis Care. This will minimise the risk of reliance on any branch in the years to come.

Type Of Revenue (Care)

Oasis Care main income is sourced from local authorities in London and accounts for 85% of care revenue. The rest of care income is made up from NHS and private individual service users.

Training Income 2023-2024

OCTA Training element has seen an increase of 31.72% from £628,966.10 to £466,886. This increase has been fundamentally down to second year of our Greater London Authority (GLA) contract which overlaps the academic years of 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 within the financial year of Oasis.

With budget for 2024-2025 and 2025-2026, the training arm is hoping to deliver an overall budget of £600,000 to £700,00.

For 2024-2025, The training arm will be delivering the following Apprenticeships (Main provider and Levy), Skills Bootcamp Care and Skills Bootcamp Early Years. This will be academic year 2024-2025 and will overlap two financial account year.

Operating Expenditure

In 2023-2024, overall expenditure has seen an increase of 9.09% to £11,324,359 (2022-2023: £9,272,823). This against the break drop of revenue increase of 7.55% (From £10,578,760 to £11,377,322) shows strategic objectives of the organisation has been met by the organisation against highly competitive environment.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

OASIS Care and Training Agency has developed a comprehensive financial strategy for 2023-2026 that focuses on diversification, growth, and sustainability across multiple sectors. The agency aims to reduce its reliance on Domiciliary Care by expanding into new areas such as Cleaning/Domestic Services, Sheltered Housing, Care Homes, Flexi Care, Virtual Training Platform, and Dementia Pathway. This diversification is reflected in their projected growth figures, with OASIS Care expected to increase from £10.50M in 2024 to £11.20M in 2026.

A significant part of OASIS's financial strategy involves the development of OASIS Workforce Solutions, a new division that will encompass sectors such as Bus Drivers, Patient Transport, Security, Distributions, SEN School Transport, and Construction. This division shows the most dramatic growth projections, expected to rise from £10.30 in 2024 to £14.6M in 2026. To support this expansion, OASIS is allocating funds for setting up operator licenses, business plan consultancy, and purchasing a care home. They have budgeted £50,000 for Bus Drivers, £15,000 for Patient Transport, and £10,000 each for Security, Distributions, and Construction sectors.

The agency is also investing heavily in its training division, OASIS Training. By expanding apprenticeship programs, Adult Education Budget (AEB) courses, Skills Bootcamps, and DWP initiatives, they project significant growth in training revenue from £600,000 in 2024 to £1.5M in 2026. This focus on training and skills development not only diversifies their revenue streams but also addresses the growing demand for qualified professionals in the care sector.

OASIS's financial strategy also emphasises sustainable financial management. They are developing pricing structures and revenue projections to ensure agency profitability and exploring potential expansion into new geographical areas as the agency grows. The agency continues to pursue public sector contracts through competitive tendering, investing in the preparation of tender submissions and improving the tender process. Simultaneously, they are targeting private sector opportunities by offering services directly to private clients who do not qualify for local authority funding and to employer customers seeking recognised qualifications for their staff.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Technology integration forms another crucial part of OASIS's financial strategy. They plan to implement new software solutions to enhance workflow and efficiency, including advanced applicant tracking systems and recruitment software. This technological investment is expected to improve operational efficiency and support their growth objectives.

Marketing and brand development are also key components of the financial strategy. OASIS plans to strengthen its social media presence to improve recruitment targets and brand recognition. They will create sector-specific marketing campaigns for their new ventures, aiming to establish a strong presence in each of their new sectors.

Overall, OASIS Care and Training Agency's financial strategies demonstrate a commitment to growth, diversification, and sustainability. By expanding into new sectors, improving existing services, and focusing on both public and private sector opportunities, OASIS aims to significantly increase its turnover from £21.70M in 2024 to £26.05M in 2026. This ambitious growth plan, coupled with a focus on continuous improvement and adaptation to market changes, positions OASIS for success in the evolving care and training landscape.

OASIS CARE MANAGEMENT REPORT

OASIS Care Management team undertook major initiatives and changes over the past year. We have made significant strides in improving our care assessment processes, adapting to new regulatory frameworks, enhancing staff training, and refining our operational procedures. These changes have positioned us to provide even higher quality, more personalised care to our clients while ensuring regulatory compliance.

New Care Assessments

One of our most impactful changes this year was the introduction of a new care assessment system using People Planner software. This digital platform has revolutionised how we conduct and manage personalised care assessments:

allows for more efficient data entry, retrieval, and analysis of care assessment information.

• Improved Accessibility: Care staff can now access up-to-date client information securely from any location.

• Better Compliance: The system helps ensure all required assessment elements are completed consistently.

Staff Training

To support this transition, we conducted comprehensive training for all office staff on completing personalised care assessments using the new system. This training focused on:

The branches have completed around 17,000 total online courses delivered.

Adoption of New CQC Assessment Framework

In response to regulatory changes, we have fully adopted the new Care Quality Commission (CQC) assessment framework introduced in late 2023. Key aspects of our implementation include: two CQC inspections in 2023 at South and West branches with contrasting outcomes. The CQC inspection in South Branch in late 2023 was a success whilst CQC Inspection on West was a failure. Since the inspection, the West Branch team have made a number of wholesome changes that has resulted in much better outcomes for the following CQC Inspection in April 2024.

Quality Statements

We have now aligned our processes with the new quality statements, replacing the previous Key Lines of Enquiry (KLOEs).

• Evidence Collection: We have refined our methods for gathering and presenting evidence across all required categories, including people's experiences, staff feedback, partner input, observations, processes, and outcomes.

OASIS ELECTRONIC CALL MONITORING

Background

Over the past four years, Oasis Care & Training Agency has transitioned from a solely paper-based organisation to one that is almost entirely paperless, with over 95% of Oasis Care’s both administrative & care management processes done on innovative tailored platforms. CM2000 & HAS Portal along with establishing a Monitoring Dept. were just the start of a long but very fruitful journey into modernising and digitalising Oasis Care and Training Agency to enhance compliance, quality assurance and a satisfactory person-centred care service.

ECM Officers monitor Live over 1,250 scheduled visits every day and more than 3,700 regulated care plan activities including service user medications. Our ECM officers are dedicated to supporting our care staff in real-time. The benefits of Live View monitoring are twofold, we have peace of mind and verification that our service users are receiving their scheduled care at the correct times, all care visits are checked in and out, that all information is recorded, and that medication is accurately managed. Our ECM Officers support and keep track of lone care workers while out in the field. Our Monitoring Dept. collaborates closely with the care teams in three Oasis branches, HR and Finance. With real-time alerts, ECM Officers flag up any concerns to the related care teams and care managers who address care worker compliance failures, carry out necessary checks and investigate near miss visits. ECM officers complete daily and weekly visit audits to confirm all visit logs are completed for finance to process care staff payments at the end of each month.

This is a brief summary of Oasis Care’s vision and objectives for migrating to and implementing Access Care Management Solutions, along with the past year performance and achievements.

Overview

As part of our strategic improvement plan, Oasis Care is committed to achieving performance-based results with the latest care management technology. The past year has seen advancements and achievements in streamlining all areas, including administrative performance, service quality, and considerable accomplishment in monitoring, reporting, analysing, and establishing specific protocols for action. Choosing to partner with the best in the technology market, Access next-generation ecosystem platforms enable us to accomplish the required statutory compliance and inspection frameworks by the Care Quality Commission.

Added Value:

The features of Access Care Management Solutions, as well as how the system was executed were critical to our migration's reliability and success. The majority of our data was on both CM2000 and HAS Portal, which are integrated and managed by Access Group, making our move and migration seamless.

OASIS ELECTRONIC CALL MONITORING

Our Vision:

To optimise the way we deliver care, utilising innovative software technology allows us to gain a better administrative process with a single view of our entire organisation, including people, processes, and care management platforms. That view being offering better person-cantered care service and enhancing monitoring, reporting and evaluation to produce tangible strategies to meet the compliance regulations and CQC's inspection frameworks. It is also crucial to advance the working environment for our personnel, care workers, and service users through digital transformation.

Our Objectives:

Access Project implementation

Our Access systems were tailored to our specific needs during the project planning and implementation phases, which began in July 2023. We were able to design and implement our unique environment thanks to scoping workshops and trainings. Oasis Care Access systems went live throughout our three branches and Live Monitoring Department in November 2023.

Configuring our needs and preferences enabled us to fulfil our objectives, align our processes and procedures with CQC guidelines, and meet regulatory requirements.

Challenges

We encountered a few hurdles during the full digitalisation of our processes, including a complete cultural shift in the way we work both internally and externally. Our care staff resisted at first because this was our second move to a new platform in four years. Some carers found it hard but after using the system and experiencing first-hand all of the benefits and the continuous support they were receiving from the ECM Officers they were on board and satisfied.

Achievements

Recognising our respective strengths and the unique contributions we make to achieving Oasis Care's vision and goals, Oasis Care Monitoring Dept. plays an outstanding and critical role in ensuring communication, collaboration and results. Access Platforms have upgraded Oasis Care to achieve significant compliance improvements with single version of records, data, and information, sharing, reviewing and updating is productive, cohesive and consistent throughout our organisation.

Outlook for the future

We look forward to achieving empowering results through continues improvement in our internal and external working environments, meeting statutory and regulatory frameworks. And achieving 100% compliance in the 5 Key quality statements of the new CQC Single Assessment Framework

20 | PAGE

QUALITY ASSURANCE

The Oasis compliance team’s key responsibilities and functions are to:

If the team is concerned that a branch is not complying with their responsibilities, we will issue a compliance notice. If, after the branch has responded, the compliance team is still not satisfied that they are compliant, we can direct them to take action to ensure compliance.

The Oasis West Branch has lost its good rating and the branch alongside the compliance team have worked hard to complete all necessary actions. CQC have recently reinspected, and we await the results to be published soon. The Compliance team made several changes to its processes and practices to strengthen its quality assurance impact. This included enhancing the non-compliance internal processes, improving management of risk assessments, implementing service user/ care staff engagement strategy to address matters in a timely manner.

The new CQC single inspection framework already came into effect and has touched almost every aspect of care. Under the single inspection framework, the compliance team is preparing branches for the changes that will result from the introduction of the 34 Quality Statements. Against this backdrop, the compliance team has developed serious reporting forms and a redesigned audit methodology for use with the Quality Statements. We will use the insights gained to design audit processes that objectively assess performance, identify any areas of non-compliance, and assist branches to address those areas and reach confidently for improved performance.

a Oasis Care & Training Agency AUDIT REPORT UNQUALIFIED

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees' report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees' responsibilities statement found in the trustees' report, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of accounts that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the accounts, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a

going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the accounts

We have been appointed under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the accounts as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our

opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs {UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these accounts.
