Staffing Levels
7/10

There were sufficient staff to support people's needs... they did not use agency staff, instead had bank staff who knew the people using the service and this meant they could cover the shifts when needed.

7/10

Staff gave us positive feedback about the training they received, which was tailored to meet the needs of people using the service. New staff received an induction... before moving on to more specialised training.

6/10
✓
People had opportunities to access their local community, education and day trips. The registered manager thoroughly researched activities available in the local area... Social occasions were recognised and meals out... were included.
Points to consider
They use bank staff to cover some shifts, so it's not a fully permanent team every day.
the registered manager told us they did not use agency staff, instead had bank staff who knew the people using the service and this meant they could cover the shifts when needed.
No dedicated activities coordinator or specialist programmes, so the role is mostly one-to-one support with community outings and cooking.
People had opportunities to access their local community, education and day trips... people were encouraged to prepare and cook their meals. Social occasions were recognised and meals out at local restaurants.
