"Staff feel supported with good training and safety awareness, but no registered manager in post and some agency staff use are drawbacks."
Staff had a good understanding of abuse and the safeguarding procedures... Risk assessments were in place... We were made aware of an incident where staff were not able to access medication... appropriate actions were being taken.
Staff were well supported by the registered manager and senior team... The staff we spoke with were all positive about the senior staff and management in place, and were happy with the support they received.
Staffing numbers were sufficient to meet people's needs... We saw that agency staff members were used to cover shifts, but the overall amount of permanent staff had increased since our last inspection.
Staff induction training and on-going training was provided... Specialist training was provided to make sure that people's needs were met and they were supported effectively.
There was not a registered manager in post. The service had a manager who was going through the registration process with the Care Quality Commission.
The service employed activity coordinators... People told us they enjoyed the activities that were on offer... games, play bowls and bingo... going out in the minibus... canal trip.
No permanent manager in place yet, as the current one is still registering with the regulator.

Staffing is adequate but they use some agency workers to cover shifts.

Activities are regular with a coordinator but mostly basic games, bingo and outings, no specialist programmes.
The service employed activity coordinators... I take part in the games, play bowls and bingo... going out in the minibus... the canal trip was fantastic.
