We found the service had made improvements and is no longer in breach of regulation relating to safe environments.
Staff told us the service was a supportive place to work and that it was led by a registered manager who knew them and people well and who was approachable. They
placed people at the centre of their decisions.
Staff knew people well and supported people with appropriate care and kindness.
People’s records were well written and detailed, as were risk assessments. Medicines were well managed and the registered manager had oversight via audits of many aspects within he home.
However, some areas of the house were not in a good state of repair. This included missing door strips on fire doors, which are used to slow the spread of fire, and 2 windows upstairs that did not have restrictors on them. The registered manager had addressed this with their landlord and repairs were completed during the assessment.
Further there were some restrictions in place that the provider had not properly assessed and mitigated. They had not sought agreement from people for CCTV cameras being placed in the laundry, small kitchen and front door nor had they reviewed regularly the locked kitchen. Once these concerns had been raised leaders addressed them promptly. By the end of the inspection, they had been resolved.
