People’s experience of using this service and what we found
Arielle Care Ltd provided person-centred care and this was reflected in all the feedback we received about the service. Families told us, “The care is very good, I would definitely recommend them to anybody”, “Arielle’s are brilliant, open, caring and honest” and “As far as I am concerned, I would give them 10/10 no 11/10.”
People, their relatives and staff told us Arielle Care Ltd delivered a safe service. Staff understood how to safeguard people and when to raise concerns. People received their medicines safely and staff followed infection prevention and control guidance to minimise risks related to the spread of infection.
People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible and in their best interests; the policies and systems in the service supported this practice.
Quality assurance systems were in place to monitor the safety and quality of care provided. The service was relatively new and the registered manager was developing these systems further to ensure the service continued to learn and develop.
