The service has been developed and designed in line with the principles and values that underpin Registering the Right Support and other best practice guidance. This ensures that people who use the service can live as full a life as possible and achieve the best possible outcomes. The principles reflect the need for people with learning and physical disabilities and/or autism to live meaningful lives that include control, choice, and independence. People using the service receive planned and co-ordinated person- centred support that is appropriate and inclusive for them.

What inspectors found

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.

People appeared happy and relatives told us they were pleased with the care and support received. A relative told us, "I'm very happy with the care they give, [my relative] absolutely loves the staff and being there". Staff were friendly and attentive to people's needs and our observations showed there were enough staff to meet people's needs. Staff were trained and felt supported.

People felt safe and staff were aware of how to promote people's safety. Regular checks were in place to ensure staff worked in accordance with training and health and safety guidance adhered to.

The environment had plenty of communal space for people to enjoy. People enjoyed the activities that were provided, staff told us there were many opportunities for people to go out and people were living fuller lives. A relative told us, "There's things they've supported [my relative] with like using public transport. I didn't think that would ever be possible".

People were involved in planning their care and their views and preferences were acted upon. Feedback about the registered manager and staff team was positive. There was an open culture in the service and an expectation that people were supported in a person-centred way. Staff were clear about their roles and the management team engaged well with the team and other agencies.
