During an inspection looking at part of the service

People we spoke with told us that the staff were kind and always respected them and looked after them well. They told us that they were aware of what was written in their care plans. Some of their direct comments included, 'We are well looked after here'; 'The girls are worth their weight in gold'; 'I know what is in my care plan. The girls talk to me about it'.

People also told us that would know what to do if they were unhappy about anything. Also, that they felt safe at the home and that they had no worries.

People told us that they found the home to be clean and maintained to their liking. Some of their comments included, 'This place is always clean and lovely'; 'There is no smell in this home'; My room is clean and I have my own furniture in my room'.

During a routine inspection

When we spoke with the people who used the service they told us that their rooms were large enough to accommodate their personal belongings. People also told us that they were able to lock their room to ensure privacy.

We spoke with one of the people who used the service and she told us that although she used the smoking room frequently, she found that the lack of extractor fan made the place less relaxing for her to enjoy her smoke.

People told us that they were looked after well and commented positively on the care that they received. The comments from the people who used the service included:

'I feel that my rights are respected by the staff'.

'I have no concerns about the staff or the care here'.

'I can't speak for others but I have not seen or heard any staff member being unkind to people'.

'The care here is wonderful'.

'I couldn't have chosen a better place'.
