Key Finding
"A homely family atmosphere and committed leadership, but irregular staffing and overdue training hold it back."
Safety & Risk
7/10
✓
People told us they felt safe. Risk assessments were detailed and provided clear guidance about the support people needed. Medicines were safely managed.
Staff Culture
8/10

The home had a family feel. People described the service as being 'homely and a family environment'.
Staffing Levels
5/10
!
The registered providers lived at the home and did not employ staff, on a regular basis. However, they employed a member of staff to work on an 'as and when' basis.
Training & Dev
4/10
!
The registered providers had completed a range of training courses. However, there were no clear records of when these should be refreshed. Some of the training was overdue.
Management
7/10
✓
One of the registered providers was also the registered manager. The registered providers showed a commitment to running a well-led service for the benefit of the people who used the service.
Programmes
4/10

People were supported to spend time doing things they were interested in. One person said, 'I go out and about a bit, I like to meet my friends for lunch and a catch up.' A relative told us they go out together on day trips and to the shops.
