“We assessed the service against ‘Right support, right care, right culture’ guidance to make judgements about whether the provider guaranteed autistic people and people with a learning disability respect, equality, dignity, choices, independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. We found the provider was generally meeting the principles outlined in this guidance.”

“The provider was previously in breach of the legal regulations in relation to safe care and treatment, person centred care, need for consent, staffing and good governance. Some improvements were found at this assessment, and the provider was no longer in breach of the regulations relating to person centred care, need for consent and staffing. However, continued breaches of regulation were identified in relation to safe care and treatment and good governance.”

“This provider has been in Special Measures since 24 April 2026. The provider demonstrated the improvements have been made. The provider is no longer rated as inadequate overall or in any of the key questions. Therefore, this provider is no longer in Special Measures.”

“The provider had worked hard to make improvements following our last assessment. However, we found further improvement was needed in areas such as medicines, risk management, aspects of care planning and the quality of the records. Governance systems needed to be strengthened to ensure audits were effective at identifying and addressing concerns to improve the overall quality and safety of the service.”

“However, we found people were supported by a consistent staff team who knew their needs well. Staff treated people with kindness and compassion, and they worked well with external professionals to support people to stay well.”

“We have asked the provider for an action plan in response to the concerns found at this assessment.”
