"Staff feel well supported and valued with sufficient staffing and strong training, although activities lack specialist therapy or innovative programmes."
Staff protected people from abuse and understood the providers safeguarding procedures to keep people safe from harm. People's medicines were managed and stored in a safe way. The provider learned lessons when things had gone wrong
One staff member said 'It's a lovely place to work.' Staff felt well supported and valued by the registered manager and provider. Staff told us there was a good level communication between the different teams, and they worked together well
The provider took exceptional actions to ensure there were sufficient numbers of suitable staff. Staff told us there were sufficient staff to meet people's needs. They told us how they had quality time to spend with people and did not always feel rushed
