Programmes
4/10
!
People were supported to maintain any activities, interests and relationships... a 'sensory' room... supported to be involved in their local communities.
Points to consider
No activities coordinator or specialist programmes, so the job is mostly helping people get more independent with daily life.
The home's focus was to enable people to develop their skills towards more independent living.
Only standard training like induction and basic mandatory courses, no specialist or funded qualifications.
Staff spoke very positively about the training they received... A recent audit... identified the need for an enhanced understanding of MCA and DoLS.
Staffing is adequate to meet needs but nothing special, no info on low agency use or stable long-serving team.
There were enough staff to meet people's needs effectively.
