Right Support:

Staff supported people to have the maximum possible choice, control and independence be independent and they had control over their own lives. Staff focused on people's strengths and promoted what they could do, so people had a fulfilling and meaningful everyday life. Staff supported people to take part in activities and pursue their interests in their local area.

The provider ensured people received care and support in a safe, clean, well equipped, well-furnished and well-maintained environment that met their sensory and physical needs. Staff supported people with their medicines in a way that promoted their independence and achieved the best possible health outcome.

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.

Right Care:

People received kind and compassionate care. Staff protected and respected people's privacy and dignity. They understood and responded to their individual needs. Staff understood how to protect people from poor care and abuse. The service worked well with other agencies to do so. Staff had training on how to recognise and report abuse and they knew how to apply it.

The service had enough appropriately skilled staff to meet people's needs and keep them safe. People could communicate with staff and understand information given to them because staff supported them consistently and understood their individual communication needs.

Right Culture:

Staff placed people's wishes, needs and rights at the heart of everything they did. People's quality of life was enhanced by the service's culture of improvement and inclusivity. People and those important to them, including advocates, were involved in planning their care.
