Key Finding
"Staff feel supported with enough numbers and good teamwork, but basic activities and unclear risk assessments hold it back."
Safety & Risk
5/10

My [relative] is given choices to decide what he would like to do. He has been involved with choosing activities he likes and also choosing which trips he likes to go on.
Points to consider
Staff numbers are enough but no system checks for changes in staff backgrounds between criminal record checks every 3 years.
there wasn’t a process in place to identify any changes in staff's circumstances between the 3 yearly DBS checks.
Risk assessments do not always show how likely or serious risks are, so staff guidance is not always clear.
people's risk assessments did not always indicate the likelihood and severity of the identified risks.
Only basic activities like trips and choices mentioned, no activities coordinator or structured programme to vary the workday.
