Stibbs House

Stibbs House can accommodate up to 10 people in one building, across three separate wings, each of which has separate adapted facilities.

People were protected as much as possible from the risks around Covid 19. There were regular checks in place for staff, people and visitors.

We expect health and social care providers to guarantee autistic people and people with a learning disability the choices, dignity, independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. Right Support, right care, right culture is the statutory guidance which supports CQC to make assessments and judgements about services providing support to people with a learning disability and/or autistic people.

This service was able to demonstrate how they were meeting some of the underpinning principles of Right support, right care, right culture. Right support: We found that the model of care was based on promoting choice, control and independence. One person told us they were about to move to more independent living and they were happy about this. Right care: We found care was person-centred and promoted people's dignity, privacy and human rights. Staff spoke to each person in a very respectful engaging way. Staff also talked at length about the unique needs of the people who had been staying at the service. Right culture: We found the values, attitudes and behaviours of leaders and staff helped ensure people were living positive and empowered lives. Staff talked with real commitment about their role in ensuring they promoted and encouraged independence with everyone they supported.
