Staffing levels were appropriate, and staff were recruited safely. Staff were up to date with training and were observed treating people with kindness and respect.

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 received compassionate care from the staff, people and family members (where required) were involved in the care planning process.

People received the support they required to maintain a balanced diet. Positive comments were made by people and their family members about the food.

A variety of activities took place in the home and people were encouraged to maintain relationships. Family members told us they visited often.

A complaints process was in place and was displayed in the home. The registered manager was pro-active in speaking with people in order to discuss concerns at the earliest possibility.

This service was well led and staff felt well supported by the registered manager. Feedback from people and their family members about all aspects of the service was overwhelmingly positive.
