What inspectors found

Quality monitoring of the service was not robust. Audits did not always identify shortfalls in the service. The registered manager and provider were open, transparent and responsive to shortfalls we identified and took prompt action to bring about the required improvements.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

People received personalised care and their needs and risks were assessed and monitored. Care plans were person centred with people and their relative's views at the centre of them. There were several meaningful activities available to people and the service had good links with the local community.

There were enough experienced and qualified staff to safely meet people's needs. Staff knew people well and were kind and considerate when delivering care.

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, relatives and staff thought the service was well managed. They felt supported and able to raise any concerns which were taken seriously. Several compliments were on display which referred to the quality of care people received.

Medicines were administered safely, and accidents and incidents reported where required.

Infection prevention and control procedures ensured as much as practicably possible people were protected from the risk of infectious diseases.

The service worked in partnership with health professionals.
