Key Finding
"Staff feel supported and valued with good activity plans, but no registered manager, high agency use and outdated training hold it back."

3/10
✕
Although we did not see any direct impact, the lack of some risk related paperwork suggested that people’s risks were not always being appropriately managed.

Management
2/10
✕

Programmes
4/10
!
The service had an activity plan in place on the hallways noticeboard that showed some of the activities that were being offered throughout the week. We were told this changed weekly.
Points to consider
No permanent manager in post, so leadership oversight is not fully reliable yet.
