This assessment started with a site visit on the 8 May 2024. During the site visit we met with everyone who lived at the home and a number of staff. The registered manager was available throughout the site visit.

An Expert by Experience made calls to 5 people’s representatives on 9 May 2024. An Expert by Experience is a person who has personal experience of using or caring for someone who uses this type of care service.

We expect health and social care providers to guarantee people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices and independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. ‘Right support, right care, right culture’ is the guidance CQC follows to make assessments and judgements about services supporting people with a learning disability and autistic people and providers must have regard to it.
