At the time of our assessment there were 18 people using the service. At the last inspection the rating was requires improvement. We undertook this assessment to check improvements had been made. We found improvements had been made and the overall rating has changed to good.

The provider was previously in breach of the legal regulation in relation to good governance. Improvements were found at this assessment, and the provider was no longer in breach of this regulation. However, some focus was needed to strengthen management oversight of aspects of medicines management. The registered manager and provider were open to feedback and took responsive action to any issues we identified during this assessment.

Lessons were learnt to continuously drive improvements and safeguarding concerns were reported to the local authority.

The service was pleasantly decorated and was clean.

There were sufficient staffing levels within the service and safe recruitment systems were in place.

The provider worked collaboratively with other health professionals to support people. Health professionals confirmed referrals were made in a timely manner.
