People spoke positively about the support they received and the staff team who cared for them.

Families felt their loved ones were safe and gave feedback about the positive improvements made at this service, since our last inspection.

People were involved in planning and reviewing their support needs. Care plans were shaped around people's preferences.

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.

Governance at the service had improved. Robust audits were now in place to monitor care records, medicines and people's wellbeing.

At this inspection we identified damaged surfaces in communal areas which were an infection control risk to people. The provider confirmed that works would be completed to rectify these areas and new handrails sourced.
