The Care Inspectorate has outlined a series of improvements to be put in place after they made an unannounced inspection at the home last month.
Bosses at a council-run care home for children have been told to take “urgent and decisive” action to improve service delivery.
Among the key issues, the Care Inspectorate said there were “risks to young people’s safety,” with some youngsters admitting they “felt excluded.” The free download features the latest breaking news and exclusive stories while you can customise your page with the sections that matter to you.And many staff “did not feel supported” by the managers and external managers, nor “did they feel that they benefited” from regular advice and guidance through effective supervision, team meetings, handovers, or a supportive team of peers.
Twenty-eight Cunningham Place is a registered care home service provided by South Ayrshire Council. The service provides care to a maximum of seven young people. The report goes on: “Staff were not consistently providing trauma-informed care. We found that there was a lack of therapeutic work undertaken with young people, and strategies used to support young people were absent or unclear. This meant that the care provided to young people was inconsistent and staff’s responses to young people were, at times, insensitive and did not support their emotional wellbeing.
