We found the following examples of good practice.
The provider ensured current guidelines in relation to COVID-19 were being followed by staff and visitors to reduce the risk of infection. This included comprehensive checks for staff and visitors when they arrived at the service.
The service was clean and fresh. Housekeeping staff ensured that all high touch points, such as door handles, were cleaned frequently, and deep cleaning took place on a regular basis. Posters provided advice on topics such as hand-washing and social distancing. Staff had received training in infection control and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE). The provider had maintained an ample supply of PPE. We saw staff using PPE correctly. This helped reduce the risk of cross contamination.
Staff felt safe working at the service and told us the registered manager supported them very well. The provider had completed risk assessments to help ensure the people using the service and staff stayed safe.
