This service scored 61 (out of 100) for this area. Find out what we look at when we assess this area and How we calculate these scores.

During a staff meeting it was raised that people had complained of staff ignoring them. The staff meeting minutes stated ‘losing clients will affect the hours offered to staff.’ The staff meeting minutes went on to state service users at the end of their lives, were the highest volume of clients that had decided to leave the service. The provider failed to take action and ensure people were supported by kind and compassionate staff. People’s care plans lacked information on people’s individual likes and their needs. Care plans we reviewed were generic and not person centred. For example, 1 person has cerebral palsy. There was no information within their care plan detailing how this affected them, and any support they needed in relation this. The person’s care plans was not always clear on what they could do for themselves and what they needed support with.

The people we spoke with expressed concerns with how their care was delivered and our assessment found care did not meet the expected standards. People did not receive care in a person-centred way. There had been a number of complaints made to the provider from people and their relatives. For example, one person had made a complaint that staff were not interacting with them. Another person had made a complaint staff were not caring. Other complaints included staff lack of communication. The provider and registered manager failed to investigate and take relevant action to ensure people received the support they required.
