We found 4 breaches of regulation in relation to safe care and treatment, staffing, consent and governance.

Medicines administration records (MAR) were not all sufficiently detailed. All required pre-employment checks had not been made prior to staff starting their roles. Care records did not always refer to capacity, consent or best interest decisions. Managers did not have a clear structure or overview for audits, governance or oversight and there was very limited formal provider oversight. Audits were not sufficiently robust and had not identified all the concerns found during the assessment.

Care records did not detail how people’s medical conditions may impact them. Staff were in the process of updating care records, also making sure how risk affected a person and how they were managed was always included. There were sufficient staff deployed to meet people’s needs. Staff told us they felt supported, and the training was good.

Staff told us they felt valued and there was good teamwork. One staff member said, “It is a good place to work.” People were supported to access health care professionals such as their GP.

Staff and managers knew people well. They were able to tell us what was important to and for each person. They placed great importance on promoting people’s choice and independence.

Managers of the service worked well together and were open about improvements that needed to be made. They had started to work with the local authority on improvements and were in the process of developing an improvement plan.

We have asked the provider for an action plan in response to concerns found at this assessment.
