What inspectors found

Risks associated with people's care and support and the environment were monitored and managed. There was a new manager in post who had begun to make improvements to the way the service audited different areas within the home. Medicines were managed safely, and the manager had implemented effective auditing processes for different aspects of the service.

There were enough staff to meet people's needs and safe recruitment practices were followed.

The home was clean throughout and domestic staff knew the importance of regular cleaning of touch points.

People were supported with their health needs and had access to healthcare services. People were supported by staff who had the training and support required to provide effective care.

People were supported well by staff who cared for them and treated them with dignity and respect. Family members spoke highly of the staff team and felt people were well looked after and kept safe.

The manager had started to make improvements to systems and processes. We discussed various aspects of improvement and the manager told us how they were going to work to make the improvements required.
