What inspectors found
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.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
Right 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.
People lived in a residential area of Minehead. This enabled them to easily use community facilities such as shops and cafes.
Staff supported people safely with their medicines. Staff worked with other professionals to avoid people taking unnecessary medicines.
People were supported to take part in activities which interested them and maintain contact with friends and family.
Right Care People felt safe at the home and with the staff who supported them. Staff knew how to recognise and report any suspicions of abuse. This helped to keep people safe.
Risk assessments were carried out to promote people's safety and wellbeing. Staff worked with other professionals to make sure people received the care and support they needed.
People were supported by adequate numbers of experienced and well-trained staff.
