Report published 12 January 2023 · Last inspected 30 November 2022

Inspectors visited a supported living service in Telford and Shropshire that provides personal care to 10 people with autism and learning disabilities in their own homes. They found staff understood how to recognise and report abuse, risk assessments guided how risks were managed, and staff encouraged people to take positive risks. The registered manager was described as promoting a person-centred culture, and the report says the provider supported a learning environment where actions were taken to improve quality.

  • The registered manager promoted a person-centred culture that staff followed
