Langley Park Care Home

There were enough staff to meet people's needs. Safe recruitment procedures were followed. Medicines were managed effectively. Staff followed infection prevention and control guidelines. Improvements to the décor had recently been made and more were planned. The premises were clean and tidy.

Staff sought people's consent before providing care and support. 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 and relatives told us staff were kind and caring and the standard of care was high. Staff treated people with respect and supported them to make decisions about the support they received.

People received personalised care that was responsive to their needs and preferences. Staff knew people's needs well. People and relatives knew how to raise concerns. There was a range of activities for people to enjoy.

People and relatives felt the service was well managed. An effective quality assurance process was in place. People and relatives were regularly consulted about the quality of the service via meetings and surveys. There was a positive culture and ethos at the service which was driven by the registered manager and deputy manager. The registered manager led by example and actively promoted responsive care which improved people's quality of life.
