What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 27 February 2023 · Last inspected 3 February 2023

The service supports adults with a range of disabilities, including people with a learning disability or who are autistic, in supported living houses. Inspectors found that staff were courteous and respectful, helped people pursue their interests and make choices, and that the team and atmosphere had improved since a new manager arrived. The overall rating was good.

Strengths noted
  • Staff were described as courteous and respectful during personal care, and they protected people's privacy and dignity.
  • People are supported to take part in activities they enjoy, such as swimming and outings, and to keep in touch with family.
  • Staff were said to understand individual needs well and to adjust care as those needs changed.
  • People and relatives reported that staff teams and the support provided had improved since late 2022.
Areas to improve
  • Before the new management team arrived, staffing was inconsistent and there were not always enough staff to meet people's needs.
  • Recruitment records had not been robustly audited, and some pre-employment checks were not completed before staff worked alone until the inspection.
