"Supportive managers and a positive culture where staff feel valued and trained, but heavy agency staff use and few meaningful activities hold it back."
Improvements had been made... People’s health conditions and associated risks were assessed and managed safely. Medicines were stored, documented and administered safely. Staff supported people to manage risks whilst maintaining their independence by promoting positive risk taking.
Staff told us, 'The manager treats both staff and people with respect.' Managers were approachable and supportive.
Per 2023 comprehensive inspection: Staffing levels were adequate, however, the service used a lot of agency staff who were not always trained to the level required to support people safely.
Staff received medication training, and their competency was checked to ensure they understood the requirements for the safe administration of medicines. Staff told us they felt well trained and confident.
Staff were able to raise concerns and told us managers were approachable and supportive. The manager has good oversight of the work within the service. They are actively involved in day-to-day operations and make sure both staff and the people we support are good.
People could benefit from being involved in more meaningful activities both inside and outside the home. However, the provider shared what they had put in place to improve activities, which included meetings with people to discuss what activities they would like, some of these activities had begun.
No activities coordinator or regular programme, so the role is mostly routine personal care even with some new basic activities starting.
We found people could benefit from being involved in more meaningful activities both inside and outside the home.
Adequate staffing but heavy use of agency workers who were not always fully trained.
Per 2023 comprehensive inspection: the service used a lot of agency staff who were not always trained to the level required to support people safely.
