People's experience of this service

People and their relatives shared mixed feedback about the support people received. Although all people and relatives commented that staff were kind and caring, we received consistent concerns about staffing levels. We observed kind and positive interactions between people and staff. Relatives told us communication had improved since the recent change in management.
