People’s experience of using this service and what we found
People told us they felt safe with staff and found staff to be competent. Staff were trained to provide safe care and support. People’s individual needs and risks were assessed with them and their representatives where relevant. This included support people might have needed to take their medicines or to protect themselves from avoidable harm.
There were enough staff employed to provide people with timely visits. New staff were recruited safely. Although there were no incidents, accidents or safeguarding concern raised since the service started providing support to people, the registered manager and staff knew what to do to protect people.
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 told us staff were caring and respected them, their preferences, families and homes. One person told us, “[Staff] are very friendly. There is nothing to improve. I am very pleased with them.”
People were involved in planning and reviewing their care and asked for their feedback by the management. They knew how to raise any issues and felt listened to. When needed, a solution was offered and implemented to improve the care they received. People’s care plans included personalised information about them and their needs. Staff knew people well.
The registered manager and the manging director created a positive, open and transparent culture in the service and knew people well. Staff felt supported in their roles. The management team maintained direct oversight of the day to day care provided to people and supported staff to take action to contact other social care or healthcare professionals when people needed help to do so.
