Report published 9 June 2023 · Last inspected 16 May 2023

Inspectors found that people receiving personal care from this domiciliary service, which supported 65 people at the time of inspection, feel secure with the staff who support them. Workers were found to respond appropriately when incidents happened or people's health changed, and people were supported to make their own choices in the least restrictive way. Inspectors noted that records of health conditions and associated risks were not always detailed enough, and they recommended stronger learning disability and autism training for staff.
