"Staff feel supported by approachable managers and enjoy a genuine family-like culture, although training records need updating and staff sometimes cover extra hours."
The service had effective systems in place to protect people from abuse. Risk assessments were detailed and up to date which meant staff had guidance on how to manage people's care safely.
One staff member said; 'Never been in a place like it! Love it!' Staff members new to the service told us; 'The team here are all genuine and caring. Really nice staff team and feels like a family.'
There were sufficient numbers of staff employed and on duty to meet people's assessed needs. Staff confirmed staffing levels enabled them to keep people safe and meet their care needs. For example, staff could spend quality time with people.
Staff received appropriate training and support... However, we have recommended that the training matrix reflects the updated staff training completed.
Staff told us the registered manager and management team was available and assisted them daily. They went onto say how they were approachable and listened when any concerns or ideas were raised.
There was a designated activities staff member to assist people. The service had a range of activities and these were arranged and carried out by the designated activities co-ordinator.
Staff sometimes work extra hours to cover absences and keep familiar faces on shift.
The staff said they worked additional hours, so people had staff they knew and trusted. This was to support appointments or during staff absences.
Training records are not fully up to date even though staff have completed recent training.
We recommend the registered manager updates the training matrix to match what staff had completed.
