Date of Assessment: 13 April 2025 to 8 May 2025. This assessment was completed to identify if the required improvements had been made following a previous inspection. The supported living and domiciliary care service provides personal care to adults and children of all ages living with physical disabilities, sensory impairments, dementia, mental health conditions and Learning disabilities or autistic spectrum disorder. We expect health and social care providers to guarantee people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices and independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. ‘Right support, right care, right culture’ is the guidance CQC follows to make assessments and judgements about services supporting people with a learning disability and autistic people and providers must have regard to it.
