Right Care ● People had not always been supported to take part in activities and pursue interests based on their individual preferences. ● People had not been supported to develop goals and aspirations based on their individual preferences. ● 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 provider 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 provider had enough appropriately skilled staff to meet people's needs and keep them safe.

Right culture ● Staff evaluated the quality of support provided to people. However, people had not always been involved in these reviews. ● The provider enabled people and those important to them to work with staff to develop the service. Staff valued and acted upon people's views.

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.
