About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 6 August 2021. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
The Chiltern Centre is a respite and day service run by The Chiltern Centre Limited. It is registered to provide accommodation and personal care for up to four adults at any one time with a range of needs including, physical and learning disabilities. People could have support from a few hours a day or for longer periods. At the time of the inspection there were two people using the service for varying periods of time with 26 people registered for respite support.
What inspectors found
People were protected by staff who knew how to report concerns relating to harm and abuse. There were sufficient staff to meet people's needs. Medicines were managed safely. People were supported in line with their care plans which meant risks to people were effectively managed and reviewed on a regular basis.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
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 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.
The service was able to demonstrate how they were meeting the underpinning principles of Right support, right care, right culture. People were involved in decisions about their care and supported to make choices about their day to day living. The culture of the service promoted independence, choices and empowerment for the people living in the service. Staff had a good understanding of how people communicated their needs and wishes and respected people's likes and dislikes. People's care was focused around their needs and staff supported people to engage in activities in the service and outside in the community.
People experienced person centred care from staff who were compassionate and knew people's needs. The service involved people and treated them with compassion, kindness, dignity and respect.
We looked at infection prevention and control measures under the Safe key question. We look at this in all care home inspections even if no concerns or risks have been identified. This is to provide assurance that the service can respond to COVID-19 and other infection outbreaks effectively.
The registered manager had a clear understanding of their responsibilities and a good overview of the service. Regular auditing took place to inform where improvements may be required.
