About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 4 January 2024. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
11& 12 Third Row is a residential care home providing accommodation for persons who require nursing or personal care, up to a maximum of 4 people. The service provides support to people with a learning disability or autism. The service consists of two terraced properties that have been converted into a single building. People living at the home have their own rooms and share a range of facilities, such as bathing and toilet facilities and kitchen and lounge areas, in a 'family style' setting. At the time of our inspection there were 3 people using the service.
What inspectors found
This was a focussed inspection where we only looked at the safe and well-led domains. Based on our inspection of these areas we found people were well supported in their daily lives.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
We expect health and social care providers to guarantee people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices and independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. 'Right support, right care, right culture' is the guidance CQC follows to make assessments and judgements about services supporting people with a learning disability and autistic people and providers must have regard to it.
Right Support: People were supported to have choice about their daily lives. Not everyone being cared for was able to express their needs verbally. The staff and the registered manager had a good understanding of people's responses and non-verbal communication. Staff had worked with the individuals for a considerable time and knew them extremely well, including their likes and dislikes and personal preferences. People were able to access the community, if they wished and were supported to maintain good contact with their families.
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.
Right Care: Care was person centred and staff supported people to achieve their ambitions and live their best life possible. Staff spoke affectionately and with understanding about the people they cared for. Relatives compared the home to a family environment. People were treated with dignity and respect and staff had an in depth understanding of the person and the support they needed.
Right Culture: The manager spoke passionately about caring for the people at the home and the desire to ensure they were safe and well cared for. Staff spoke about working at each person's own pace and ensuring the service worked for them. One staff member told us, "The lads (people) are a pleasure to work with. Half the time it doesn't feel like work but like you are visiting them in their own home."
