All Inspections

17 August 2012

During a routine inspection

We spoke with two people who used the service and two relatives of people who also used the service. We also spoke to the registered manager and three care staff. On the day of the site visit, we were told by the registered manager that the service provided care to 15 people.

The people we spoke with told us that they were very happy with their care and they got on well with the care staff. One person told us 'they listen to me, I have a good rapport with them all and I have a joke with them'. The people told us that their care staff came on time most days. One person told us 'they always ring us to let us know if they are running late so we do worry'.

The people told us that they had care plans and the manager made sure that the information in their plans was kept up to date. They also told us that the care staff knew how to meet their needs and called them by their preferred name. They said all care staff spoke to them in a dignified manner. One person told us if they had any concerns, they would ring the office and speak to the manager because they " would listen to me and do something about it".
