Some staff were able to tell us detailed information about the people they support. However, some staff also had difficulty in identifying safety issues in relation to people's needs at lunch time when asked by inspectors.
People's care plans were not always up to date. Inconsistent information was viewed which related to the monitoring of people’s health and care needs. Some plans and risk assessments lacked sufficient detail to ensure that appropriate care was delivered.
