Not everyone who used the service received personal care. CQC only inspects where people receive personal care. This is help with tasks related to personal hygiene and eating. Where they do we also consider any wider social care provided.

Medicines were managed safely. The provider employed sufficient staff, staff were trained appropriately and recruited safely. Staff worked effectively with visiting professionals.
