Where appropriate, the provider and staff encouraged and enabled people to take positive risks and live an independent life as possible.

Right Culture: The service promoted person-centred care involving people who used the service and their families. People led inclusive and empowered lives because of the ethos, values, attitudes and behaviours of the provider and small staff team. People were involved in planning their care. The provider evaluated the quality of support provided to people. This involved the person, their families and other professionals as appropriate. Staff ensured risks of a closed culture were minimised, so people received support based on transparency and respect.
