Envico Supported Living LTD

Right support: The service used positive behaviour support principles to support people in the least restrictive way. No restrictive intervention practices were used.

Right care: People's support focused on them having as many opportunities as possible for them to gain new skills and remain as independent as they could be. The staff supported people in a person-centred way and respected their privacy, dignity and human rights.

Right culture: Staff were responsive to people's individual needs and knew them well. They supported each person by spending time with them and listening to them. They ensured that each person felt included and valued as an individual. People were engaged in meaningful activities of their choice. They were consulted about what they wanted to do and were listened to.

People who used the service and their relatives were happy with the service they received. Their needs were met in a personalised way and they had been involved in planning and reviewing their care. The staff were

kind, caring and respectful and had developed good relationships with people who used the service.

People's needs were assessed before they started using the service and care plans were developed from initial assessments. People and those important to them were involved in reviewing care plans. Risks to their safety and wellbeing were appropriately assessed and mitigated. There were systems for monitoring the quality of the service, gathering feedback from others and making continuous improvements.

The provider worked closely with other professionals to make sure people had access to health care services. People received their medicines safely and as prescribed. People's nutritional needs were assessed and met.

Staff were happy and felt well supported. They enjoyed their work and spoke positively about the people they cared for. They received the training, support and information they needed to provide effective care. The provider had robust procedures for recruiting and inducting staff to help ensure only suitable staff were employed.

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.
