About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 3 October 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Venetia House is a residential care home providing personal care to 9 at the time of the inspection. The service can support up to 10 people. The service provides support to people with long term mental health conditions, a learning disability and autistic people.
What inspectors found
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.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
Right Support: People were safe and protected from the risk of abuse. Staff were recruited safely. Risks to people's health, safety and wellbeing had been robustly assessed. Care plans contained detail and guidance for staff on ways to reduce risks to people. Staff had received training which enabled them to support people in the most appropriate way.
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. We recommend the provider consider adding more detail to best interest decisions where possible.
Right Care: People were treated in a caring manner by the manager and staff team. People were encouraged to exercise choice and control in their daily lives. People received information in a way that was accessible to them.
Right Culture: The management team had developed a positive culture, which placed people at the centre of their care. People understood how to complain if they were unhappy with the care they received.
