During a routine inspection

People who lived at Station Rd had complex needs and were not able to verbally communicate their views and experiences to us. These individuals were completely reliant on staff to meet their physical, emotional and social needs. Because of this we observed staff interactions with people to help us understand how their needs were supported. We observed that staff treated people with respect, protected their dignity and generally had professional and positive relationships with people.

People had access to community activities and were supported to make everyday choices about how and with whom they spent their time.

People's care and welfare was protected by the support planning systems and risk assessments in place and staff knowledge of people's preferences was really positive to see. Some concerns were identified about the recording systems in place and this has been brought to the Regional Operations Director to address. We have suggested some improvements to address this.

Overall, we found that people were happy living at Station Rd and were supported by a very experienced, stable and committed team of staff.
