Our current view of the service

Good

Updated 8 January 2025

Date of inspection: 04 February 2025 to 13 February 2025. The service provides supported living to people in their own homes. At the time of the inspection there were 36 people receiving the regulated activity of personal care at the service. The location is also registered to provide domiciliary care, but at the time of the inspection nobody was using this service. Therefore, our findings are in relation to supported living only. The inspection was prompted following a review of information held about the service and the length of time since the last inspection.We assessed the service against ‘Right support, right care, right culture’ guidance to make judgements about whether the provider guaranteed people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices, independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. People were supported by staff who were kind and caring. Staff knew the people they supported well and worked to cater for people’s individual needs and preferences. People’s needs were assessed and regularly reviewed. The provider worked closely with health and social care professionals to ensure people received positive outcomes. Managers ensured staff received appropriate training and supervision to safely and effectively deliver care to people. There was a positive culture at the service, with managers taking appropriate actions to investigate incidents, accidents and complaints.

People's experience of the service

Updated 8 January 2025

During the inspection we received feedback from people and their relatives. The feedback received was positive overall. People had choice over how they spent their days, and staff supported them to access community activities which were meaningful to them. A Person told us “I like living here and I like the staff, they take me to places I like to visit.” Staff at the service took time to understand the communicative needs of the people they support so that everyone was able to exercise choice and control. People’s relatives were positive about managers at the service. A relative told us, “The manager is lovely, they are kind and caring.”
