Read the rest of CQC's summary
We received mixed feedback from staff regarding staffing levels. Some staff felt they needed more staff during busy periods. We have made a recommendation about the provider reviewing their staffing structures.
Robust auditing systems were in place which comprised of various manager and provider level audits. Record keeping had improved. Staff felt supported by the registered manager and were recognised by the provider for their contributions through commendations. There was a good culture within the service which had a positive impact on people. The service worked in partnership with others such as commissioners, safeguarding teams and health and social care professionals.
The provider had two systems in place to record the administration of prescribed creams which was not best practice. We have made a recommend about the provider reviewing their documentation processes regarding prescribed creams.
