Assessing needs
Relatives of people using the service told us they and their family member were involved in planning their own care. They told us they had an initial meeting with the manager where they assessed the person’s needs and risks to them. They explained people’s views and personal preferences were included in care plans.
Staff knew people well and helped to ensure people received care and support that met their needs.
The provider carried out initial assessments of people's needs and preferences with people and their family members. These included information about their background, culture, allergies, their likes and dislikes and hobbies. Each person had a care plan which reflected these assessments and explained how staff should meet their needs. This helped provide staff with guidance about best practice. Care plans were person centred and included fact sheets on medicines people took and their medical conditions.
