What inspectors found
At our last inspection we found the provider had failed to consistently submit statutory notifications in line with regulatory requirements. At this inspection we found statutory notifications were submitted as required. The registered manager worked with members of the management team to retain oversight of care quality and safety in the service. People and staff spoke positively about the registered manager.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
Medicines were managed safely and risk assessments were in place to guide staff about how to keep people safe. Staff were aware of their responsibility to report potential safeguarding concerns. We received mixed comments about staffing levels. The registered manager told us staffing had recently been increased and they used a staffing tool to determine staffing levels, in line with people's needs. Recruitment processes were in place to help prevent unsuitable applicants being employed in the service.
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.
