Medication records had gaps and no tracking for stock when people go out, plus unlabelled food in the fridge risked hygiene problems.
not all people's medicines administration records (MARs) were complete or accurate... no recorded process in place to show how many medicines were held in stock... 4 unlabelled items in a communal fridge.
No activities coordinator or structured programme, so the role focuses on basic support for personal interests like college and outings.
One person was proud to show us the artwork they had completed at college... supported people to pursue their interests inside and outside the home.
