There were 50 people living at the service at the time of our inspection and two people were in hospital.

What inspectors found
People and their relatives were happy with the quality of care and support they received at the service.
People received care and support that was developed to meet their individual needs as reflected in their care plans. However, some of the individual assessments to identify and meet risks to people's safety and wellbeing needed to be more detailed and tailored to people's unique circumstances.

People were supported with their medicine needs, although some improvements were needed to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the medicine system.
People were pleased they were provided with a clean and hygienic home where staff followed correct procedures to protect them from the risk of infections.
Staff were described as "lovely and caring" and relatives praised the staff team for keeping their family members safe.
People enjoyed activities to keep them entertained and stimulated during the lockdown. People and their relatives spoke highly about well appointed and comfortable premises, which were described as "beautiful".
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 felt consulted about their wishes and they knew how to make a complaint if they wished to. They told us the service was well managed and they had full confidence in the performance of the registered manager.
