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. Staff received the necessary induction, training and supervision to support them in their roles. People told us they liked the food provided at the home and the home had good links with other health care professionals such as dieticians and the speech and language therapy (SALT) team. Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) applications were submitted to the local authority as required.
Auditing and governance systems were in place at both provider and managerial level. Staff meetings took place which enable staff to discuss their work to drive improvements. Staff said they enjoyed their work and spoke of a positive culture at the home.
