What inspectors found
CQC: OutstandingReport published 19 December 2018 · Last inspected 30 September 2018
Inspectors found that people receiving personal care were supported by a small, stable team of staff they knew well, with staff matched to people's interests and personalities. Support was flexible around people's routines and was often shaped by individual goals, which helped people build confidence, become more independent and take part in their communities. The report describes a warm, respectful atmosphere in which staff were seen as caring and people were treated with dignity.
- Staff were matched to people based on needs, interests and personalities, and people were involved in choosing them.
- Support plans were highly personalised and included guides on how staff could support each person's wellbeing.
- Staff were trained and supported through a structured induction, supervision and specialist workbooks, and worked closely with healthcare professionals.
- Leaders sought feedback from people through surveys and home visits, and used quality audits to drive improvements.
