All Inspections

During a routine inspection

People told us the agency gave a good service. Staff listened to them and gave care according to agreed instructions. They told us they were treated with respect. One person said the carers 'were great'. One relative said the service 'always lets me know when things change'. One relative said that 'Mencap have moved away from being person centred which is a shame'. Local authority care managers told us the service was well run. One care manager told us the majority of staff were good and several went beyond the call of duty to support people who used the service.
