Treating people as individuals
The provider made sure the person’s care, support and treatment met their needs and preferences. They took account of the person’s strengths, abilities, aspirations, culture and unique backgrounds and protected characteristics.
A bespoke care package was in place to meet the person’s complex support needs. This ensured the person’s holistic needs were taken into consideration, such as their interests and how they liked to spend their leisure time.
Independence, choice and control
The provider promoted the person’s independence, so they knew their rights and had choice and control over their own care, treatment and wellbeing. The person enjoyed regular activities that were of interest to them and accessed community facilities in accordance with these. The person was supported to maintain relationships with those important to them.
Responding to people’s immediate needs
The provider understood the person’s needs, views and wishes. Staff responded to the person’s needs in the moment and acted to minimise any discomfort, concern or distress. Two staff supported the person at all times which ensured their support needs were met on an ongoing basis throughout the day and night.
