SCASS Ltd

SCASS Ltd is registered to provide accommodation with personal care for up to eight people with a learning disability and/ or autistic people, people with a physical disability and younger adults. At the time of the inspection, one person was staying there as a permanent resident and they had people who regularly stayed for short respite.

We expect health and social care providers to guarantee autistic people and people with a learning disability the choices, dignity, independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. Right support, right care, right culture is the statutory guidance which supports CQC to make assessments and judgements about services providing support to people with a learning disability and/or autistic people. We considered this guidance as there were people using the service who have a learning disability and or who are autistic.

Right Support: People were encouraged to be independent where they could to provide self-fulfilment in people's lives. Staff were always on hand to keep people safe and offer support at any time.

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.
