"Staff handle safety incidents well with enough staff on duty, but no permanent manager and basic activities without structure hold it back."
Staff managed incidents affecting people's safety well. Staff recognised incidents and reported them without delay, the deputy manager investigated incidents and shared lessons learned.
Staff felt supported by the management team and said they felt able to raise concerns with both the deputy manager and area manager.
The providers dependency tool ensured staffing levels were determined on people's individual needs, staff rotas we reviewed demonstrated there were always enough staff on duty.
Staff received training in safeguarding and understood what concerns were and who they should report them to. Staff received training in medicine and had their competency assessed.
At the time of our inspection there was not a registered manager in post. However, the provider was in the process of recruiting a manager to support the deputy manager.
one person told us, 'I love all the staff here but [staff member] is just my favourite, they help me with everything I need and take me shopping which I really like.'
No permanent manager in post, so leadership and oversight feels less stable even with deputy support.
At the time of our inspection there was not a registered manager in post. However, the provider was in the process of recruiting a manager to support the deputy manager.
Basic activities like shopping outings with no coordinator or structured programme, so the role stays mostly routine personal care.
