What inspectors found
We identified some improvements were needed to be made in respect of recruitment checks. The provider immediately addressed this. At times, staffing levels could be compromised, but the provider and registered manager did all they could to mitigate the risks from this. We saw on the day of the inspection, there were enough staff to support people and meet their needs. Staff were provided training to help them meet people's needs. Staff were well supported and encouraged to learn and improve in their role and to put people's needs and wishes at the heart of everything they did.

People were safe at the service. Staff knew how to safeguard people from abuse and keep them safe from identified risks to their safety and wellbeing. The service was clean and hygienic, and staff followed current infection control and hygiene practices to reduce the risk of infection. The provider carried out health and safety checks of the premises and equipment to make sure these were safe. Medicines were managed safely. People were supported to take their medicines as prescribed.
The service was managed well by an experienced registered manager. They understood how people's needs should be met and had oversight of the service. There were audits and checks at regular intervals, to monitor, review and improve the quality and safety of the service. There were systems in place to investigate accidents and incidents.
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.
The service worked with healthcare professionals involved in people's care and acted on their recommendations to deliver care and support that met people's needs.
