If savings are under the upper limit (£23,250 in England), Gloucestershire Council may pay part of the cost after a free care needs assessment.

The inspection, summarised

  • People's care needs and support requirements had been assessed, recorded and managed well.
  • However, records relating to the management of people's medicines were not always clear.
  • The provider had identified that parts of their governance and quality monitoring systems needed to improve to identify gaps in people's care records and the management of the service.
  • Although we found shortfalls in parts of the providers quality monitoring systems, the registered manager had good oversight of the service.
