People were receiving safe care. People’s care, treatment and support promoted equality, removed barriers or delays, and protected their rights. Staff empowered people to make their own decisions about their care and support. People’s individual risks were identified, and risk assessment reviews carried out to keep people safe. There were safe and effective recruitment and selection processes in place and staff were competent and suitably trained.

People and relatives felt involved in all aspects of their care and decision making and were encouraged by staff to make choices and voice their preferences. One relative commented “They are alright with [family member]; they always ask if they are comfortable before they leave. I’ve got some brilliant ones. They have a laugh with [family member] and cheer them up.” Another relative told us, “They talk to [family member] and ask them what they want to do. They are unwell a lot of the time, [staff] have to adapt to them, they are very good at that. When they are well, they do as many activities as possible.”

Care plans contained sufficient detail about people’s preferences about their care and support. The care coordinator explained care plans would be enhanced once the service moves to digital systems, they were adding more detail to the care plans to make them more personalised.
