Risks to people and the environment were assessed and managed which helped to keep people safe from harm. There was a process in place for recording and reporting on any incidents and accidents that occurred.
Staff meetings were held every month. These were an opportunity for the registered manager to pass on any relevant or important information to the staff team and for them to provide feedback or give their views.
We found there were sufficient staff employed during the day and night to keep people safe.
A training matrix in place which showed that staff had been given training in a number of areas relevant to their role. A supervision matrix was in place so the provider could monitor staff supervision which were being done every two months.
Robust governance procedures were in place which meant the registered manager had good oversight into all aspects of the service. These included regular audits, clinical meetings and observations of practice.
There was a programme of activities in place for people which were run by a long standing activities co-ordinator. They provided both group activities in communal spaces and individual activities for people in their bedrooms.
Staffing is adequate but nothing special, with no details on agency use or staff retention to keep workloads manageable.
We found there were sufficient staff employed during the day and night to keep people safe.
Activities program has a coordinator but is mostly basic cultural and indoor ones, lacking more outdoor trips or variety.
The service would benefit from a more wide-ranging activities program, including incorporating more outdoor walks, especially for those people that spent the majority of time in their bedrooms.
Only standard training and regular supervision, no specialist courses or funded qualifications for career growth.
Staff completed an induction which was completed over three days. This gave them an introduction to the service's policies and procedures and the relevant mandatory training.
