People's experience of the service and what we found: People were safe. Monitoring and quality assurance checks were completed, including on the care provided, the premises and equipment.
People's medicines were managed well. We made a recommendation to further enhance this.
There were enough safely recruited staff. 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.
Staff were fully supported, and the management team were well known. The staff and management team were kind, caring and responsive and promoted a person-centred ethos.
A significant refurbishment programme was underway with a further unit to be fully decorated and modernised in the early new year. Suitable infection control procedures were followed.
