Read the rest of CQC's summary

Safeguarding referrals, as well as incidents and accidents, were investigated. Health and safety related checks were completed to maintain a safe environment and the home was clean throughout. There were enough staff to meet people's needs and new staff were recruited safely. People received the medicines they needed when they were due.

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.

There was a structured approach to quality assurance which was used to identify areas for improvement. People, relatives and staff had opportunities to give feedback about the home.
