During a routine inspection
At the time of our inspection there were six people living in Elaine Herbert House and we spoke with five of them, and one visitor. We also spoke with four staff. People were very complimentary about staff and their experience of living in the home. One person said that they 'Couldn't wish for anything better.' A family member told us that they were pleased with how their relative had settled at the home and thought they were being well looked after.
Staff we spoke with showed that they understood the needs of the people they were supporting. They also demonstrated a good understanding of the need to protect the safety, privacy, dignity and confidentiality of people.
