Recommendation 1

1. In order to promote activity and independence for people living in the service, the provider should have appropriate signage around the home. The use of the King's Fund Environmental Assessment Tool and involving people/their representative in designing the environment is recommended to help ensure that best practice and people's needs and wishes are taken into account. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards which state that: 'I can independently access the parts of the premises I use, and the environment has been designed to promote this.' (HSCS 5.11)
