Summary of outcome

We found that the provider had improved their knowledge and understanding of child protection procedures and now fully understands their responsibilities. They have ensured assistants working with them, have a clear understanding of their roles and responsibilities relating to protecting children from potential harm. Records relating to any concerns about children are now completed in more detail. Assistants also now understand the procedures to follow should an allegation be made against the provider or anyone living in the home. We are satisfied the provider has met the safeguarding and welfare actions raised. The provider is still registered with Ofsted.
