"Stable long-serving staff team and strong safety with good medicines management, although activities lack a coordinator and specialist programmes."
We looked at medicines management in the home and saw that it was good. The medicines were regularly audited... risk assessments... managed well... staff had up to date training in safeguarding.
There was a happy, warm atmosphere in the home... positive person centred culture apparent in the home and obvious respect between the residential manager, staff and people who lived in the home.
We saw that the service was staffed by a consistent staff team who had all worked for the provider organisation for a long time. We looked at the rotas and saw that staffing levels were maintained.
Staff had training in all of the required areas and in additional areas to meet the needs of the people whom they supported. Staff had regular supervision from their line managers.
The residential manager used a variety of methods to assess and monitor the quality of the service. These included regular audits of the service and staff meetings to seek the views of staff about the service.
We saw that the people led busy, varied lives. Activities included paid employment and college placements. We saw that there was a weekly menu and people took responsibility for cooking supported by staff one night each week.
No activities coordinator or specialist programmes, so the role is mainly supporting residents with jobs, college, cooking, and daily independence rather than creative enrichment.
Activities included paid employment and college placements... people took responsibility for cooking supported by staff one night each week.
