People’s experience of using this service and what we found
People felt safe and well supported by staff who were suitably recruited. People received the medicines they needed and these were safely stored. Systems were in place to reduce further risks if people had incidents or there were safeguarding concerns. The home was clean and tidy and there were suitable systems in place to ensure checks, servicing and maintenance of the environment and equipment were being completed.
People’s needs were assessed, and staff were given the training and support required to meet people’s needs. The environment had been adapted to meet the needs of the people living there. People appeared to enjoy their food, although some of the feedback about the quality of food was mixed. People were given the support and encouragement they needed to eat and drink well.
People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible and in their best interests; the policies and systems in the service supported this practice.
People were supported by kind and caring staff. People told us they felt involved in making decisions about their daily lives and that their preferences and choices were respected. People were supported to remain as independent as possible.
People were supported by staff who knew them well and care was person centred. A new care record system was in place and this needed to be embedded within the home. People were supported to have visitors and a range of activities and opportunities to access the community were available.
People and families were happy with the care they received at the home. People told us the registered managers were approachable and responsive, and they felt able to feedback ideas and make suggestions. Systems to check the quality of the home were in place including systems for feedback, observations and reviews of records. The provider and registered managers were committed to driving ongoing improvement in the home.
