About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 18 December 2019. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Talbot Gardens is a specialist domiciliary care agency providing personal care to two people at the time of the inspection in a supported living setting. The service can support up to eight people, and there were eight people living at the supported living property at the time of the inspection.

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.
What inspectors found
Although some improvements had been made in the governance of the service, we found there were still areas where records and audits could have been more effective in identifying areas of improvement and ensuring improvements had been made.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
We have made a recommendation about governance at the service.
There were enough staff deployed to meet people's needs, and staff received appropriate levels of training and ongoing support.
People said the service was safe, and there were appropriate safeguarding policies and procedures in place. Accidents and incidents were investigated and monitored and risks to people's safety assessed.
People received their medicines as prescribed and medicines administration was recorded and audited regularly.
People said staff were kind, caring and compassionate. We saw staff had good relationships with people. People we spoke with said staff supported them to lead independent lives and pursue their interests and hobbies.
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.
Care plans contained information about people's needs and personal preferences, as well as their diverse characteristics.
Staff we spoke with said they felt the registered manager was approachable and that there was a good working culture at the service. There was a clear vision and purpose for the service which focused on ensuring people who required support and were also deaf could lead independent lives and have care
delivered by staff who communicated in British Sign Language.
