During an inspection looking at part of the service
We found that the required improvements had been made in relation to the management of people's medication. The service was now risk assessing this area of people's care and had systems in place to ensure the safe administration of people's medication. The manager had implemented a number of systems to monitor staff in this area and care plans now contained sufficient information to assist staff to safely administer medication to people.
We looked at the staff training records and found these to be up-to-date. We saw that staff had been recently trained in a number of areas.
We saw that a plan was in place to update all risk assessments in place for people using the service.
The manager was now recording all incidents which took place at the service and had notified the relevant agencies when required. There was clear guidance in place to ensure that staff knew who to notify and when.
