CQC inspectors said that the home's residents felt safe and they were looked after by staff who were kind and compassionate and who treated them with respect for their dignity.

Residents and their relatives were consulted about care plans to ensure they reflected each individual's needs and preferences.

The care team knew people's backgrounds and the things that were important to them so were able to engage with them.

People were supported to make choices and maintain a good level of independence in line with their abilities and wishes.
