The service had good systems in place to safeguard children and adults from abuse.
The service reviewed safety incidents, and complaints and learned from them and improved their processes.
The service routinely reviewed the effectiveness and appropriateness of the care it provided. It ensured that care and treatment was delivered according to evidence- based guidelines.
Staff involved and treated people with compassion, kindness, dignity and respect.
Patients were able to access care and treatment from the service within an appropriate timescale for their needs.
The service had systems for sharing information with staff and other agencies to enable them to deliver safe care and treatment. However, the service did not have access to all of the patient’s medical records. The Clinical Commissioning Group confirmed that access to all patient notes was out of the services control. Although, recently more GP practices had moved to one computer software system and the service was looking at ways of funding this system.
There was a strong focus on continuous learning and improvement by the provider.
