Read the rest of CQC's summary
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.
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.
Based on our review of key questions safe, caring, responsive and well led the service was able to demonstrate how they were meeting the underpinning principles of Right support, right care, right culture. People were involved in the assessment and planning of their care. Staff understood and implemented the principles of person centred care to enable people to make choices and develop their independence.
