Risks identified with people's health, care and support needs had been comprehensively assessed with clear guidance on how to manage and minimise risk to keep people safe and free from harm.

People received their medicines safely and as prescribed. Policies and systems in place supported this.

Recruitment checks were complete and adequately assessed staff suitability to work with vulnerable adults. People and relatives told us that they were supported by regular care staff who generally arrived on time.

Care staff had access to the required personal protective equipment (PPE), information and guidance to prevent and control the spread of infection.

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.

People were supported with their nutrition and hydration where this was an assessed need. Where required the service supported people to access health and social care professionals to support their well-being.

Care staff spoke positively about the registered manager and management team and stated that they received the required training and support to carry out their role.

The overall management oversight of the service had improved since the last inspection. The registered manager had implemented audits and checks to monitor the quality of care and ensure where issues were identified these were addressed.
