People were protected from the risks of abuse and staff were trusted to keep them safe.
Staff spoke positively of their work and felt supported by the management team. The home was clean, tidy and welcoming, and people were protected against the risk of infection by safe systems and good standards.
People were supported to receive safe support from a consistent staff team who knew people well and supported them positively. Staff had positive relationships with people and supported them in a kind and caring manner.
