What inspectors found
Quality assurance systems were not always effective in identifying gaps in information. Care plans required more detail so that staff were fully aware of people's preferences as to how they wished to be cared for and supported.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
People did not always have the stimulation and access to meaningful activities they needed to live as full a fulfilled life they may wish.
People could be assured they were cared for safely as staff knew how to keep people safe and protected people from harm. Staff were recruited safely and there were enough staff to support people. Medicines were managed safely, and people could be assured they received their medicines at the correct time.
People were supported to maintain a healthy diet and had a choice as to where, when and what they ate. They had access to other health professionals when needed. They had their own personal space and access to a garden.
We have made a recommendation about the environment for people living with dementia.
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.
Staff were caring and compassionate and knew people well. People spoke positively about the care and support they received, and they were treated with respect.
People were listened to and knew how to raise a complaint if they needed to. People and staff were confident the manager and provider would act upon any concerns they raised.
Staff felt supported and spoke positively about the new manager and the improvements being made in the service.
