What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 27 November 2019 · Last inspected 3 September 2019
Inspectors found that people received caring, individual support from staff who knew their needs and preferences. Staff were trained and supported to develop specialist skills, and people spoke well of how the service was run. Some areas of medicines information and record-keeping still needed improvement.
- Staff were described as caring and compassionate, and support was tailored to each person.
- People took part in writing and reviewing their care plans, which were updated when their needs or circumstances changed.
- Staff knew how to recognise and report concerns, and risks were identified with plans in place to reduce them.
- The service worked with local community groups to help reduce social isolation, and staff received the training and support they needed.
- Care plans did not contain enough detail about the medicines people were prescribed.
- Systems for monitoring calls were still being developed, so the information they produced was not yet used fully.
- Audits did not always show that the quality of records had been reviewed.
