Read the rest of CQC's summary

Risks were assessed, monitored and mitigated. Care plans were clear and provided sufficient guidance to staff to keep people safe and outlined people's preferences. This included information about people's medicines.

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.

There was a positive culture within the service, people, relatives and staff were complimentary about the management of the service.

The provider had clear quality assurance systems in place and a robust service improvement plan to further drive improvements and develop the service. People were asked to provide regular feedback about their experience using the service which fed into the improvement plan.
