We carried out this inspection from 17 July 2025 to 24 July 2025. The service is a residential care home, providing support to people with a learning disability and autistic people, as well as those living with physical disabilities and sensory needs. There were 5 people living in the home at the time of our assessment. This service had previously been rated requires improvement. We assessed this service to review the progress made following our last inspection. We assessed 17 quality statements. We observed some concerns relating to infection, prevention and control (IPC) and the provider started making improvements during our inspection. People were protected and kept safe.People’s health conditions and associated risks were assessed and managed safely. Staff were recruited safely and received appropriate training and supervision. Staff were trained to raise and respond to safeguarding concerns both internally and to external agencies. Medicines were stored, documented, and administered safely. People’s needs were assessed and reviewed and staff ensured people’s care and support met individual needs and preferences. People were supported by staff who treated them with kindness and respected their dignity. There was a system in place for responding to concerns or complaints. A dedicated management team led the service. Staff were able to raise concerns and told us managers were approachable and supportive.
We assessed the service against ‘Right support, right care, right culture’ guidance to make judgements about whether the provider guaranteed people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices, independence, and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. We found people received care and support in accordance with the principles of this guidance.
