Well-led

Good

Updated 23 May 2024

We identified two breaches of legal regulations. Notifications were not always being made when required including when incidents had occurred and when concerns of a safeguarding nature had occurred. We also found governance arrangements were not always identifying shortfalls found during our inspection this included identify actions needed when safeguarding concerns were raised and making relevant referrals along with improvements needed to some people’s care plans and risk assessments and mental capacity assessments. Families spoke positively around the support provided by support staff and how approachable the registered manager is. One family member told us, “Registered manager is a lovely lady, very positive”. Improvement meetings were being held with external professionals so the service could improve people’s care and treatment and their outcomes.

Shared direction and culture

Score: 3

Families knew the manager and felt able to raise anything with them. Some families had more contact with the service than others. Where families wanted more contact we shared this with the registered manager so they could organise this. One professional shared with us they were working with the service to improve outcomes for people.

The provider had an action plan in place that identified areas for improvement such as improving the quality of handovers between staff and improving gaps in incidents and safeguarding recording although we could not see evidence where the provider monitoring had identified concerns so they were appropriately escalated and actions were taken to minimise incidents from re-occurring.
