About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 29 March 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

United Response – 60 Woodland Way is a residential 'care home' providing personal care and support to up to 6 people. The service provides support to people with a learning disability and autistic people. Some people were also living with dementia or had mental health care needs. At the time of our inspection there were 6 older people living at the care home. The care home accommodates people in 1 adapted building.

What inspectors found

Relatives and community health and social care professionals spoke positively about the standard of care provided at United Response – 60 Woodland Way. A relative told us, "I know my [family member] is happy living here. They [staff] look after all the people living here extremely well." A community social care professional added, "I would not hesitate to recommend this place to any mature person with a learning disability to live."

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 Care Quality Commission (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 full summary

The service was able to demonstrate how they were meeting the underpinning principles of Right support, right care, right culture.

Right Support People received a service that was safe for them to live in and for staff to work. The service quality was reviewed regularly, and appropriate changes made to improve people's care and support if required. This was in a way that suited people best. The home had well-established working partnerships that promoted people's participation and reduced the danger of social isolation.

Right Care Staff were appropriately recruited and trained and there were enough of them to support people to live in a safe way, whilst enjoying their lives. Risks to people and staff were assessed, monitored and reviewed. Complaints, concerns, accidents, incidents and safeguarding issues were appropriately reported, investigated and recorded. Staff were trained staff to safely administer people's medicines.

Right culture The home's culture was positive, open, and honest, with leadership and management that was clearly identifiable and transparent. Staff were aware of and followed the provider's vision and values which were clearly defined. Staff knew their responsibilities, accountability and were happy to take responsibility and report any concerns they may have.

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.
