What inspectors found
From the Care Quality Commission's assessment published 10 June 2024 (assessment visit 10 April 2024). Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
We expect health and social care providers to guarantee people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices and independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. ‘Right support, right care, right culture’ is the guidance CQC follows to make assessments and judgements about services supporting people with a learning disability and autistic people and providers must have regard to it.

We carried out our on-site assessment on the 21 April 2024, off site assessment activity started on 10 April 2024 and ended on 29 April 2024. During this assessment we looked at 2 quality statements: Involving people to manage risks and Equity in experiences and outcomes. The inspection was prompted in part due to concerns received about people’s involvement in the management of risk, and how people are protected from risks which may cause harm. A decision was made for us to inspect. We found no evidence during this inspection that people were at risk of harm from these concerns.
