The service always treated people with kindness, empathy and compassion and respected their privacy and dignity. Staff treated colleagues from other organisations with kindness and respect.

The service had arrangements to promote people’s privacy. The service performed better than the national average in the results of the 2025 National GP Patient Survey. This showed people felt listened to and treated with kindness. For example, 95% of respondents to the survey felt the healthcare professional at their last appointment was good at treating them with care and concern, compared to a national average of 86%. This was reflected in feedback gathered during our assessment and through the service’s Friends and Family Test results, with people describing staff as professional, helpful, friendly and efficient.

Care home staff described the service as providing personalised care, with staff knowing the residents and their individual needs. They particularly praised the caring and supportive approach of the clinical team.
