People benefitted from the availability of 24hr support from a staff team that was caring, friendly, and responsive. Their right to make day-to-day choices about how they preferred their support to be provided was respected and this was reflected in their agreed care plan. Staff were able to demonstrate that they understood what was required of them to provide people with the safe support they needed to remain living independently in the local community.
There was enough staff employed to meet people's assessed needs. A team of staff had been recruited in sufficient numbers in anticipation of being able to meet the needs of other people assessed as suitable for supporting living accommodation. People were protected from the risks associated with the recruitment of staff unsuited to the role by the provider’s recruitment procedures. Risk assessments were in place to reduce and manage the risks to people's health and welfare.
