Points to consider
Managers did not always tell regulators about changes to who they support or mental capacity paperwork, so oversight has gaps.
Per 2021 comprehensive inspection: the provider had failed to inform us of specific changes to the service... The manager had not informed us when one person's deprivation of liberty authorisation had been received.
Staff shortages from COVID needed special fixes to manage, so shifts might feel stretched at times.
Per 2022 IPC inspection: The provider told us they had measures in place to mitigate the risks associated with COVID-19 related staff pressures
No activities coordinator or specialist programmes, just basic arts, crafts, games and online classes run by regular staff.
Per 2021 comprehensive inspection: Staff delivered regular sessions of arts and crafts, creative writing and games and leisure... People told us they attended ongoing classes which had been taking place via video sessions
