Overall, we found that there was further work to do to make sure people were better supported to follow their interests and take part in activities that they liked, that were socially and culturally relevant and appropriate to them. This included having more access to the wider community, and where appropriate, to have access to education and work opportunities.

In addition to the record of formal complaints, the registered manager undertook to introduce a local document for staff to record issues and concerns, so the registered manager could view them when they visited each setting and ensure they were resolved. They added that they would address this at the next staff meeting and discuss it at the next relatives' meeting in February.

Should do
Well-led

Should-do action 5 of 5
Should do
Well-led
At the last inspection we identified engagement with some people's relatives as an area for improvement, and at this inspection we found there was still further work to do on this.
