During a routine inspection

We observed the care given to people who used the service and they told us they were 'happy with the care' provided and staff 'spoke to them in the right way'.

We spent time observing how people were treated and saw staff spoke with people who used the service in a polite and respectful manner that encouraged decision making and independence.

People who used the service also told us they had enough to do. People who used the service said they were able to make decisions for themselves, and they were happy with the accommodation.

One member of staff said 'this is a brilliant place, we provide top care that is focussed on the patient and we involve patients in their care at all times'.

We observed people at meals times and were told the food was 'good'.
