People’s experience of using this service:

We identified three breaches of regulations. These were in relation to safe care and treatment, recruitment and good governance.

Medicines management was not always based on current best practice and the systems in place to monitor the quality of service were not always effective.

There were enough staff to meet people’s needs. Staff were aware of their responsibilities to report concerns and understood how to keep people safe. We saw that risks to people's safety and well-being were managed through a risk management process.

People benefited from kind and committed staff. People complimented the support received and told us they formed meaningful, caring relationships with the staff. Staff knew what was important to people and ensured people had care that met their needs and choices. People's dignity, confidentiality and privacy were respected and their independence was promoted.

People received support that met their needs and was in line with care plans and good practice. People's rights to make own decisions were respected. People were encouraged to maintain good diet and access health services when required.

People complimented the continuity of care provided by skilled and competent staff. People, staff and relatives were involved and felt listened to. Staff and management worked well in partnership with other agencies, social and health professionals and external organisations.
