What inspectors found
We expect health and social care providers to guarantee autistic people and people with a learning disability the choices, dignity, independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. Right support, right care, right culture is the statutory guidance which supports CQC to make assessments and judgements about services providing support to people with a learning disability and/or autistic people. The service was able to demonstrate how they were meeting the underpinning principles of Right support, right care, right culture.
Right Support People were supported to lead fulfilling and meaningful lives. People were offered a wide range of activities and chose the ones they wanted to participate in. Staff ensured that people's health needs were met by working in partnership with healthcare professionals. People received their medicines appropriately and the medicines prescribed to people were regularly reviewed.
Read the full summary
Right Care Staff were caring and compassionate. People and staff had known each other for many years. This meant that staff had an enhanced understanding of people's non-verbal communication and the ability to manage people's behavioural support needs effectively. Staff were trained and supervised to provide care and support safely and responsively.
Right Culture The service had a person centre culture and focused on people's individual needs, aspirations and choices. There was an open culture and relatives were welcome. The provider gathered feedback from people and their relatives and used their responses to plan improvements. 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.
