About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 5 January 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Sunlight House is a residential care home providing personal care for up to 4 people with a primary diagnosis of learning disabilities and mild mental health needs. Sunlight House is on a residential street, with individual bedrooms, some with ensuite facilities and communal spaces. At the time of our inspection there were 3 people using the service.
What inspectors found
The service was able to demonstrate how they were meeting the underpinning principles of Right support, right care, right culture.
Some of the providers systems in place in relation to staff and residents meetings were informal. We have made a recommendation about this and will follow this up at the next planned inspection for the service.

Right Support: The service supported people to have the maximum possible choice, control and independence. People were able to be independent and had control over their own lives. People were supported by staff to pursue their interests. Staff supported people to take part in activities and pursue their interests in their local area. People had a choice about their living environment and were able to personalise their rooms.
Right Care: The service had enough appropriately skilled staff to meet people's needs and keep them safe. Staff and people cooperated to assess risks people might face. Where appropriate, staff encouraged and enabled people to take positive risks. People could communicate with staff and understand information given to them because staff supported them consistently and understood their individual communication needs. People could take part in activities and pursue interests that were tailored to them. The service gave people opportunities to try new activities that enhanced and enriched their lives.
Right Culture: Staff turnover was very low, which supported people to receive consistent care from staff who knew them well. People and those important to them, including advocates, were involved in planning their care. Staff ensured risks of a closed culture were minimised so that people received support based on transparency, respect and inclusivity.
