We found records and systems of governance needed to improve. Although no harm had been sustained by anyone using the service, and people expressed satisfaction with the service, key documents such as care plans and medication administration records (MARs) did not always include enough person-centred information to guide staff in providing safe care and treatment to people. Not enough information was included in people’s records to evidence their capacity to consent to important decisions about their care and treatment had been assessed, or how consent would be given. Governance and oversight systems required strengthening, as the provider had not always identified issues or required action to drive improvements, including issues identified during this inspection. The leadership team were incredibly passionate about the service and the caring culture they had embedded.
The provider was in breach of 3 legal regulations relating to consent and people’s capacity, safe care and treatment, and governance and oversight of the service. We have asked the provider for an action plan in response to the concerns found at this inspection.
