Well-led – this means we looked for evidence that service leadership, management and governance assured high-quality, person-centred care; supported learning and innovation; and promoted an open, fair culture.

Leaders and the culture they created promoted high-quality, person-centred care.

Governance, management and sustainability
The provider had clear responsibilities, roles, systems of accountability and good governance. They used these to manage and deliver good-quality, sustainable care, treatment and support. They acted on the best information about risk, performance and outcomes, and shared this securely with others when appropriate. Governance systems included regular audits of the environment, infection prevention and control, medicines, care planning, safeguarding and incidents. Leaders maintained oversight through regional manager visits, quality assurance reviews and action plans, with completed actions monitored through service improvement systems.
Audit findings reflected the conditions observed during the assessment and there was evidence actions identified through audits had been completed and followed up. Improvements previously required in relation to governance, infection prevention and control and the environment had been embedded into practice, with no evidence of repeat concerns. A relative told us, “Since the new manager has taken over, the home has improved significantly.” One healthcare professional told us, “Staff attentively listen, appreciate external perspective and recommendations, and follow these through accordingly.”
