The service had an Equality and Diversity policy in place and staff received training in this area. People’s care documentation contained information in relation to people’s histories, likes and dislikes, hobbies and their faith as well as information about what is important to the person.

In their PIR submission, the registered manager told us; "We reduce the chances of discrimination happening by working in ways that promote equality, diversity and inclusion. We respect diversity by promoting person centered care, by treating individuals we support as unique rather than treating all our clients in the same way. We ensure that the care and support we provide is planned and carried out so that individual keep their sense of dignity and self-respect.”

The service’s Client Guide provided information to people about how the service promoted equality and non-discrimination.

At this assessment, we found that the service was still not routinely providing end of life care, however people’s care documentation now contained, where people wanted to discuss this, information related to end of life wishes. Staff were receiving training related to end-of-life support.
