About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 28 June 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Shirlett Close is a residential care home providing personal care for up to four people. Shirlett Close also provides personal care to people living in their own homes. At the time of the inspection four people lived at Shirlett Close and two people were provided support in their own homes.

What inspectors found

Right Support People had limited opportunities to leave the service and pursue social interests within their local community. There were missed opportunities to engage people in meaningful activities within the home and people were not supported to try new things or develop new skills. People's care records detailed pastime they may like to take part in, but these activities were not always encouraged. There was limited guidance to inform staff how to enrich people's lives through positive engagement and meaningful activities. People's goals and aspirations were not always identified with people or those involved in their care. Where a goal had been identified, staff did not always know how to support the person to achieve their goal. Progress in reaching their goal had not been reviewed.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Right Care People were not always involved in making decisions about their care. People were not always given information in a way they could understand. There was limited consideration given to the varying ways people could be empowered to make everyday choices using different communication methods.

Right culture The service did not always have a person-centred culture which empowered people to achieve their goals and aspirations. Systems were not effective in identifying if people were receiving person centred care in line with Right Care, Right Support, Right Culture. There was insufficient recording and reviewing of behaviours where a person had experienced distress.
