Workforce equality, diversity and inclusion

Governance, management and sustainability
The provider did not always have clear systems of accountability and good governance. Management audits and checks were in place and were used to identify areas for improvement. However, we found actions were not always taken promptly to address these issues. For example, concerns identified in the regional director’s audit in January 2026, including inaccurate fire safety documentation, care plans that did not fully reflect people’s preferences, and overdue keyworker meetings, had not been fully addressed at the time of the inspection.
The provider responded promptly to our feedback, making immediate improvements and confirming they would review their governance processes to ensure identified actions were monitored more effectively.

The provider focused on continuous learning, innovation and improvement across the organisation and local system. They encouraged creative ways of delivering equality of experience, outcome and quality of life for people.
