Staff and leaders actively listened to information about people who are most likely to experience inequality in experience or outcomes and tailored their care, support and treatment in response to this. People’s care plans did not always identify the person’s religious and cultural preferences. People’s care plans provided information on their preferences and wishes in relation to their care and identified if the person had a preference for the gender of the staff member who visited them. Staff completed training on equality, dignity, respect and human rights. The registered manager commented, “You need to allow the person’s human rights in practice.”
