What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 5 September 2023 · Last inspected 8 June 2023
Inspectors found that people and their relatives spoke highly of the care, and that people felt secure with staff who had the skills to support them.

- Staff were recruited safely and received an induction, followed by training, with regular supervision and team meetings.
- People and their relatives were involved at every stage of care planning, and care records supported person-centred support.
- The registered manager ran an effective quality assurance system, with regular audits used to identify actions and lessons learnt, and acted quickly on feedback.
