All Inspections

13 September 2013

During a routine inspection

During the inspection we spoke with three people who used the service, the registered manager, a doctor, the centre administration manager, the clinical lead nurse, a sexual health support worker, the governance administrator, the regional operations manager and two nurses.

People who used the service told us that they were very happy with the care, support, advice and treatment that they received. One person said, 'They have made me feel at ease today.' Another person said, 'The staff are really helpful. They told me everything I needed to know and answered all my questions.'

We saw that staff treated people with dignity and respect. We saw that care and treatment was planned and delivered in a way that ensured people's safety and welfare.

We saw that there were systems in place to reduce the risk and spread of infection.

We saw that staff received appropriate training and that a process was in place for staff to receive an annual appraisal; however there wasn't a formal system in place for supervision which included one to one support.

We found there was an effective complaints system in place.
