Read the rest of CQC's summary

Potential risks to people's health and welfare had been assessed and there was guidance in place for staff to mitigate the risk. Medicines were managed safely, and people received their medicines as prescribed.

Staff had been recruited safely and there were enough staff to meet people's needs. Accidents and incidents had been recorded and analysed to identify patterns and trends. Action had been taken to reduce the risk of them happening again.

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. There were systems in place to protect people from abuse and discrimination.

Checks and audits had been completed on all aspects of the service; action had been taken to rectify any shortfalls. People had been asked their opinion about the service and their suggestions had been acted upon.

People, relatives and staff told us the management team were approachable and they were comfortable to raise any concerns they may have. Relatives confirmed they were able to visit when and for as long as they wanted.
