The provider managed medicines safely. Staff used personal protective equipment (PPE) appropriately when supporting people.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Staff had the skills and knowledge to deliver care effectively. People's needs were assessed and reviewed regularly. Healthy lifestyles were promoted, and systems were in place to make sure people's health needs were met. The building was designed to meet the needs of the people receiving care.

People told us staff were polite and always asked before providing care and support. Care plans were personalised and showed the care and support people wanted and needed. People and relatives knew how to raise concerns and were confident these would be dealt with appropriately.

The provider ensured systems were in place to monitor the running of the service. Staff worked well in partnership with other agencies to deliver effective care. The registered manager audited care and support records, to assure themselves of quality. Lessons were learned when concerns were raised, and these outcomes were communicated to staff.

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.
