People's experience of the service and what we found: People's medicines were not always managed safely. Environmental risks were assessed and monitored. People's risk assessments reflected their current needs. There was enough staff to meet people's needs. Recruitment oversight had improved. Safeguarding policies were being followed and reported appropriately.
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. The registered manager had oversight of monitoring records such as food, fluid and repositioning records. Appropriate action had been taken to undertake all required training and provide staff with support through supervision and appraisal.
Governance arrangements had improved. However, more work was required in relation to the oversight for medicines management.
