Safe
This is the first assessment for this newly registered service. This key question has been rated as good. This meant people were safe and protected from avoidable harm.
The service worked with people to understand what being safe means to them as well as with partners on the best way to achieve this.
People were safe and mostly protected from bullying. Two male patients on Brant ward told us they had been affected by distressed behaviours from other patients as there was some patients who were particularly unwell on the ward at the time of inspection.
Patients were supported to make choices that balanced risks of harm with positive choices about their lives.
Leaders ensured there were enough skilled people to deliver safe care that promotes choice, control and individual wellbeing. Compliance rates for mandatory training and supervision were good.
