About the service

Waverley is a residential care home providing personal and nursing care to ten people at the time of the inspection. The service can support up to 14 people.
What inspectors found
Right Support Where decisions had been made for people who lacked capacity to make specific decisions, there was a lack of documented consultation with relevant family members, social workers or advocates. However, the service supported people to have choice, be independent and have control over their own lives. People's strengths were promoted and there was a focus on what they could do, so people had a fulfilling and meaningful everyday life.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
Staff enabled people to access specialist health and social care support in the community.
Right Care Some people's care plans had not been reviewed to ensure they still reflected people's needs. This short fall had not been identified in the provider's quality monitoring processes. The principles of STOMP (stop over medicating people with learning difficulties) were not always followed.
The service had enough appropriately skilled staff to meet people's needs. However, some aspects of staff training were not delivered by appropriately trained staff.
Staff promoted equality and diversity in their support for people. People received kind and compassionate care. Staff protected and respected people's privacy and dignity. They understood and responded to their individual needs.
People could communicate with staff and understand information given to them. This was because staff supported them consistently and understood their individual communication needs.
Right culture People were supported by staff who knew how to protect them from potential abuse.
The systems and processes in place to identify, report and investigate safeguarding concerns were used effectively by the registered manager and his staff. Staff ensured risks of a closed culture were minimised so that people received support based on transparency, respect and inclusivity.
