Systems were in place to ensure people were protected from abuse and to investigate any concerns. Risks linked to people's care were assessed and monitored. People received care from staff who knew them well and had relevant experience.

People were supported appropriately with their medicines and care was based on an assessment of their needs and their choices. People were supported to regularly access health care service to maintain their wellbeing. Sufficient home cooked food and refreshments were provided.

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.

A range of activities, outings and holidays were arranged for people to enjoy. The service had a large garden area which would benefit from further update. We have made a recommendation regarding this. Staff had received suitable training and felt supported.

The service had regard for the principles and values of Registering the Right Support and other best practice guidance. These ensure that people who use the service can live as full a life as possible and achieve the best possible outcomes that include control, choice and independence.

The outcomes for people using the service broadly reflected the principles and values of Registering the Right Support by promoting choice and control, independence and inclusion. People's support focused on

them having opportunities to gain new skills and become more independent.

Appropriate quality checks and audits were undertaken.
