People living at Craignair Care Home benefited from a service that was safe, effective, caring, responsive and well led.
People received their medications as prescribed and in a safe way. Medicines were administered by staff who were trained and had their competency assessed.
Regular health and safety checks were carried out to ensure the home was safe for people to live in. Risks to people were identified, managed and mitigated by staff to lessen the risk of harm to people.
Staff recruitment processes ensured staff were safe to work with people. Staff received the necessary training and support to help deliver care to people which was tailored to their needs.
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 told us they felt at home at Craignair and appeared calm and at ease in their surroundings. The home had undergone refurbishment to help improve the environment for people living with dementia. People and their relatives told us they were cared for by staff who were caring, kind and respectful.
The registered manager helped instil a positive culture which was committed to delivering high-quality and person-centred care to people. Staff understood, shared and practiced these values.
The service had worked in collaboration and partnership with other relevant organisations to make improvements to the service and to help achieve better and more positive outcomes for people.
