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. Audit records showed the provider had taken on board recent recommendations made following a safeguarding investigation. Audits were effective and when concerns were identified actions were taken to rectify them as quickly as possible. The clinical lead and senior management team had clear oversight of the service following recent issues. This meant people could be assured their health and wellbeing was a priority.
Partnerships and communities
We did not look at Partnerships and communities during this assessment. The score for this quality statement is based on the previous rating for Well-led.
Learning, improvement and innovation
The provider focused on continuous learning, and improvement across the organisation and local system. They actively contributed to safe and effective practice. The provider developed an action plan following a recent complaint. The action plan was being implemented at the time of our visit. Improvements in the home were making the quality of care better for people. There was clearer oversight from the managerial team. Additional checks were in place, and staff had developed a better understanding of people’s needs. Admissions to the home were appropriate and the management team made these decisions together. The registered manager told us they still had work to do; however, they felt things had improved over the last 2-3 months.
