What inspectors found
The service was able to demonstrate how they were meeting the underpinning principles of Right support, right care, right culture.
Right Support People received a service that was safe for them to live and staff to work in. Regular reviews took place of the quality of the service, and improvements made to ensure people's care and support needs were met. This was in a manner that was best suited to them. There were well-established working partnerships that promoted people's participation and reduced their danger of social isolation.
