Governance, management and sustainability
Staff told us the service was well managed, they felt supported and that the registered manager and leaders were open, approachable and honest. One staff member said, “[Registered manager} is good. I would say this is the best company I have worked for. Here it is about the clients and the staff. The manager listens to us and shows they really care about giving good support to us and good care to the clients.”
The service had a clear organisational structure and staff had designated areas of responsibility and accountability. There were systems in place to effectively monitor the quality and safety of the service. The registered manager and their team had a clear understanding of their responsibilities and maintained oversight of the quality and safety of the care people received. Audits and analysis of the findings were shared with staff to drive improvements. A suite of audits and checks were carried out which the registered manager recorded in an action plan to follow up any recommendations made. Having clear timeframes within this action plan will help to ensure that actions are met. Staff meetings were held which reviewed improvements that were required or discussed any emerging themes or trends. This helped ensure that staff were engaged and involved in decisions relating to the management of the service. An agenda which included reflections on safeguarding incidents or accidents would ensure the learning culture in the service is embedded further.
