All Inspections

30 January 2012

During a routine inspection

As part of our inspection we talked with two people who use the service and we asked them questions about the home, the care they received and staff caring for them. Their responses indicated that they felt safe and were happy with the care they received. Some of the comments we received included: 'Yes it's very safe and staff are very kind.' Another person said, 'Staff always respect my wishes.'

People we spoke with were very positive about the care and support they received. They confirmed they were supported to make choices and decisions about their care. They told us they were assisted to be as independent as possible. One person told us: "If it is something new that you want to try, the staff show you how to do it until you are competent to do it yourself.'

People told us they were well looked after and they all enjoyed outings and activities. They described some of the activities that they had been involved in planning for. Comments included: "I like being able to go out on my own and being independent.' 'I like having fun with my friends best."
