This service scored 71 (out of 100) for this area. Find out what we look at when we assess this area and How we calculate these scores.

The provider had a clear shared vision, strategy and culture which was based on transparency, equity, equality and human rights, diversity and inclusion, and engagement. However, within the service, a culture had developed that was based on routine and structured approaches to care. As a result, leaders and staff did not consistently demonstrate an understanding of the preferences and needs of people using the service.

Staff were caring and committed to supporting people and there was evidence of positive relationships between staff and people living at the service. However, our observations and records identified some aspects of the culture were influenced by established routines and structure rather than a fully personalised model of support. For example, people were all provided with a main meal at lunchtime which was fully prepared by staff, with little involvement of people and people’s daily records did not show choices were offered outside of the set pre-arranged activities. This was discussed with the management team who agreed to review these arrangements.
