During a routine inspection
We saw that people using the support service had signed their support plans which showed their involvement. We saw that people could make suggestions for their support plan using an implemented computer system called 'IPlanIt'.
We found that people's support plans were person centred and were based on the needs of each individual person.
A safeguarding policy was available. Staff had signed to confirm they had read the policy. We spoke with staff about what they thought abuse was. We saw that any safeguarding concerns were documented and raised with the local safeguarding team.
We saw that staff were supported through training and supervision sessions. There were weekly team meetings held for staff where the needs of people were discussed.
We saw that the manager had completed reviews on people's support plans. We saw there were regular opportunities for people using the service to provide feedback.
