"Well-trained staff and a positive family-like culture, but no registered manager yet and some medicines issues."
Best practice guidance and the provider's medicine policy and procedure had not always been followed... The provider took immediate action and no person had come to any harm.
Staff were positive about the support they received and complimentary about working for the provider. A staff member said, 'I Like working here, it has a family feel, I get on well with the management and other staff.'
There were sufficient staff deployed to meet people's individual care and support needs and safety. Staff were positive about staffing levels and confirmed this was sufficient. A staff member said, 'Usually there are no shortages, if someone is off, they [manager] will call someone else in'
Staff were found to be well trained, knowledgeable and competent. Staff received effective and ongoing training and support and their competency was regularly assessed.
At the time of our inspection there was not a registered manager in post. However, there were 2 managers who were in the process of submitting their registered manager application.
A relative said, 'The activity co-ordinator is great, they send me photos of what activities [relation] joins in with.'
No permanent manager in place yet, even though others are stepping up and applying.

Staffing is enough but they call in extra people when someone calls in sick.
A staff member said, 'Usually there are no shortages, if someone is off, they [manager] will call someone else in, I feel supported as there are always enough staff.'
Some medication errors happened but were fixed straight away with lessons shared.
We found a person's medicines had been put into a pot and left in the medicines room. We also found a concern with the recording of open dates of a box in insulin and insulin pens. The provider took immediate action.
