People told us they felt the service was well managed and they could speak to a member of staff whenever they wanted. A person told us, “The (registered) manager is lovely. They quite often come and talk to us.” A relative said, “The manager is very good she listens and sorts things out immediately if she can.”

Staff told us they had a system of ‘resident of the day’ which meant the chosen person had a full review of their care plan including any likes and dislikes, activities, or foods they would like. This discussion included family members if appropriate.

People were supported by a variety of means to give feedback about their experiences of care and support including how to raise any concerns or issues.
