Medicines were managed safely. The provider employed sufficient staff, staff were trained appropriately and recruited safely. Staff worked effectively with visiting professionals and wore PPE to keep people safe. Infection control measures were in place, and visiting was managed safely.
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.
There was a positive culture. Staff and relatives said the management team were effective. Lessons had been learnt from the last inspection and an action plan put in place to improve. Lots of positive changes had been implemented to ensure people received good quality, safe care.
