About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 20 August 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

What inspectors found
Although there were risk assessments and care plans in place, not all risk to people's safety and wellbeing had been identified and mitigated. People told us they felt safe; however, the systems in place did not always protect people from avoidable harm. Not all concerns had been reported to the appropriate bodies in a timely way.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
People's medicines were not always safely managed, people did not always receive their medicines as prescribed.
The provider had systems and processes in place to monitor the quality of the service, however some of these had not identified what we found on our inspection.
There was a complaints procedure in place and complaints were being responded to.
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.
