Report published 17 March 2023 · Last inspected 14 February 2023

Inspectors found that the small staff team knew the people they support well, and that people were safe and treated with care and respect, with choices involved in decisions about their support. Relatives said the service was well managed and that staff provided good care, and staff said they felt supported. Inspectors also found that the provider's checks had missed several areas needing work, and the provider has since acted on some of the concerns raised.
