What inspectors found

People's relatives told us they felt their family members were safe and well supported by the service. Individual risks were assessed, and staff were aware of these. Reviews of events and accidents were carried out and any actions needed were completed. Medicines were managed appropriately, and staff knew how to report any concerns about a person's safety or welfare. People told us staff arrived when they should, stayed for the required time and did not miss visits.

Staff received relevant training for their role and people felt they had the right knowledge and skills. Staff felt supported by the management team. People told us staff respected their preferences and choices. People were asked for their consent before receiving support and the principles of the Mental Capacity Act were followed.

People's relatives told us staff were kind and caring. Staff enjoyed working for the service and told us the culture was to ensure care was person centred. Care plans included information needed to support people safely and in accordance with their wishes and preferences. These were reviewed regularly.

People, relatives and staff were asked for their views about the service and felt listened to. There were monitoring processes in place to help ensure a good standard of service. Quality assurance systems identified any areas that needed further development.

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.
