People were supported to live in a safe, inclusive environment in which they were treated fairly and free from the fear of being discriminated against. People were supported to understand their equality and human rights and how staff and managers would respect these. Managers made sure staff were given appropriate training and supported to treat people equally and fairly and reduce the risk of them of being excluded from receiving care and support they were entitled to. Managers used people’s feedback to improve care to reduce any barriers people might experience due to their protected characteristics.

Equity in experiences and outcomes

Score: 3

Staff knew about people’s cultural heritage and spiritual needs and how to protect them from discriminatory behaviours and practices. They told us people’s care records contained detailed information about individuals wishes in relation to how their social, cultural and spiritual needs should be met. Training records showed staff had received equality and diversity training as part of their role to help them make sure people were not subjected to discriminatory behaviours and practices. Records maintained about activities and events at the service, showed staff actively supported people to meet their specific needs by arranging special events and occasions to openly celebrate these in an inclusive way. For example, various religious services took place at the service for those that wished to celebrate their faith.

People understood their right to be treated equally and fairly and were provided with the care and support they wanted based on their specific needs. People were supported by staff to be included and have the same opportunity as others to receive the care and support of their choice. People and their relatives described staff as kind, caring and compassionate.
