Hello

Health and Social Care Act 2014

Check care quality commission for the following: personal care :ongoing direction or control of the service

Also check the skillsforcare website and scope for very good advice and guidance

Hope this helps

If you go on the gov.uk website for Dignity in Personal Hygiene there is a information booklet Essence of Care 2010, this gives you information on best practice for staff and individuals, lots of good information.
Haven't seen an updated copy of this yet.
