During a routine inspection

In this report the name of the registered manager, Mrs. Wendy Catherine Louise Wilkinson appears, who was not in post and not managing the regulatory activities at this location at the time of the inspection. Their name appears because they were still identified as the registered manager on our register at the time.

People were provided with information about the service and any planned treatment. Arrangements were in place for obtaining information in different formats and people could use an interpreting service to ensure they understood.

Staff ensured that people were aware of the risks and benefits so they could make an informed decision about any treatment, and consent was recorded.

Staff respected people's privacy and dignity and delivered care and support in a positive and professional manner.

Staff received professional development and attended relevant training courses in order to provide appropriate care and support to people using the service.
