Our view of the service

The assessment took place between 18 July and 02 August 2024. We undertook this assessment to follow up conditions placed on the provider following the last inspection. We found one continued breach of the legal regulation in relation to good governance. The provider had not made enough improvements to quality assurance systems, since our last assessment. However, improvements were being made in assessing people’s risks and managing medicines safely. People were treated with kindness and compassion and felt safe.
