What inspectors found
We found daily records were not always comprehensive. We have made a recommendation about effective recording of daily observations. The provider managed medicines safely; however, some processes around medicines administration were not always robust at reducing the need for 'as required' medicines. We have made a recommendation about effective 'as required' medicine protocols.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
Staff were trained to recognise potential risks and signs of abuse. Risks to people's safety and wellbeing were assessed and reviewed by managers. Staffing levels were safe. Staff used personal protective equipment (PPE) appropriately when supporting people and infection prevention and control processes were in place.
Managers ensured systems were in place to monitor the running of the service. The provider had procedures in place to receive feedback on how to improve support. Managers audited support records, including accidents and incidents to assure themselves of quality. Lessons were learned when concerns were raised, and these outcomes were communicated to staff. Staff worked well in partnership with other agencies to deliver effective support.
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.
