The layout of the building provided adequate space for people with walking aids or wheelchairs to mobilise safely around the home and was suitably designed for people with dementia type conditions. We spoke with both the senior carer responsible for medication and the registered manager during our visit. We spoke with eight people who used the service, two relatives and three members of staff as well as the manager and deputy manager and one senior carer.
People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible; the policies and systems in the service supported this practice. Some records were lacking regarding best interest decisions but these were immediately updated by the registered manager following our visit.
