Assessing needs

Score: 3

People’s needs were assessed before they received support. This meant the registered manager could make sure staff were able to effectively meet people’s needs. A relative told us, “[Person] was involved in his care plan. The home went through his needs in the hospital before he went into the home. They explained everything to him when he looked round the home before admission.”

The registered manager and staff were aware of the processes for assessing and meeting people’s needs. Staff were observed to be supporting people in line with their care plans and risk assessments, which reflected their needs.

People’s choices and preferences were included in their assessments and associated care plans. These were regularly reviewed and updated in line with people’s changing needs and wishes.
