About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 27 April 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Wardley Street is a short-stay and/or emergency respite care service providing personal care and support to up to 7 people at any one time. This includes 5 short stay and 2 emergency beds. The service provides support to people with a learning disability and autistic people. At the time of our inspection there were 4 people staying at the respite service which accommodates people in 1 adapted building. Approximately 40 people and their families extensively use this respite service. People staying there may also have additional care needs associated with mental health, mobility, communication, or sensory impairment.

What inspectors found

We expect health and social care providers to guarantee people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices and independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. 'Right support, right care, right culture' is the guidance Care Quality Commission (CQC) follows to make assessments and judgements about services supporting people with a learning disability and autistic people and providers must have regard to it.

The service was able to demonstrate how they were meeting the underpinning principles of Right support, right care, right culture.

People using this respite service all spoke positively about the standard of care and support provided at Wardley Street. A relative told us, "My [family member] loves to stay at Wardley Street. The staff are all so supportive there." Another relative added, "It's a wonderful service my daughter receives there. She always looks forward to going."

Right Support People received a service that was safe for them to live in and for staff to work. The quality of the service was regularly reviewed, and appropriate changes made to improve people's care and support if required. This was in a way that suited people best. The home had well-established working partnerships that promoted people's participation and reduced the danger of social isolation.

Right Care Staff were recruited safely and appropriately trained. There were enough staff to support people to live in a safe way, whilst enjoying their lives. Risks to people and staff were assessed, monitored, and reviewed. Complaints, concerns, accidents, incidents, and safeguarding issues were appropriately reported, investigated, and recorded. Staff were suitably trained manage people's medicines safely.

Right culture The home's culture was positive, open, and honest, with leadership and management that was clearly identifiable and transparent. Staff were aware of and followed the provider's clearly defined vision and values. Staff knew their responsibilities, accountability and were happy to take responsibility and report any

concerns they may have.

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.
