Effective – this means we looked for evidence that people’s care, treatment, and support achieved good outcomes and promoted a good quality of life, based on best available evidence. At our last assessment we rated this key question good. At this assessment, the rating has remained good. This meant people’s outcomes were consistently good, and people’s feedback confirmed this.

This service scored 75 (out of 100) for this area. Find out what we look at when we assess this area and How we calculate these scores.

The service made sure people’s care and treatment was effective by assessing and reviewing their health, care, wellbeing, and communication needs with them. Staff understood people’s individual needs and made sure assessments were up to date and recorded.

Staff told us people’s views were sought during daily support and in meetings with their keyworker. People were involved in their assessments and reviews. Staff and those who knew people well were involved in people’s assessments to ensure their views and opinions were captured.

The service planned and delivered people’s care and treatment with them, including what was important and mattered to them. They did this in line with legislation and current evidence-based good practice and standards.

Staff monitored people’s weight if required and used nationally recognised tools appropriately to assess and monitor people’s needs. For example, there was a falls protocol in place which guided staff on how to support and monitor people if they had a fall.

Staff ensured people had enough to eat and drink and where there was a concern in this area, staff had put safeguards in place to help people manage these.

The service worked well across teams and services to support people. The staff team worked together with a variety of health and social care professionals to ensure care and support was received when required. The provider had processes in place to ensure care and support was coordinated in the best interests of people using the service which included collaboration with professionals and information sharing.

A professional told us, “Myself and 66 Park Lane worked jointly on my clients care plan and we discussed this at length to try to address their needs in the most person-centred way.”

The manager gave us several examples of other health professionals they worked in collaboration with.

The service supported people to manage their health and wellbeing to maximise their independence, choice, and control. The service supported people to live healthier lives and where possible, reduce their future needs for care and support.

Care records captured the support people required with their health needs and what action staff should take when there was any deterioration to an individual’s health. A staff member told us, “We collaborate with GP's, district nurses, social workers and advocates.”

The service routinely monitored people’s care and treatment to continuously improve it. They ensured that outcomes were positive and consistent, and that they mostly met both clinical expectations and the expectations of people themselves.

People were engaged to ensure they were able to make choices about their lives. Individual meetings took place with people to understand their goals and aspirations.

Staff worked collaboratively to plan and deliver people’s care, reduce risks, and achieve best outcomes for people.

The service told people about their rights around consent and respected their rights when delivering care and treatment. Where necessary, mental capacity assessments were completed in line with the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (MCA).

Staff understood the importance of asking for consent prior to providing care and support. They told us they always sought consent from people and explained what they needed to do to support the individual safely. We observed staff gaining people’s consent throughout our on-site inspection visits.
