CQC rates Barnsley Specialist Residential Care Home as good.

Community Places run by Community Places Limited provides specialist care to adults with learning disabilities, autism and or complex needs.

Following the inspection in August the CQC has rated the service as Good for being Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive and Well-Led.

Inspectors found;

• Right support: People were consistently protected and kept safe by staff who had an excellent understanding of risks.
• Right care: Governance systems had improved and were effective in monitoring all areas of the service. Care was person-centred and promoted people’s dignity, privacy and human rights.
• Right culture: The ethos, values, attitudes and behaviours of leaders and care staff ensured people using services led confident, inclusive and empowered lives. 

Residents told the CQC that they felt safe with their support workers and the inspectors witnessed residents approaching staff and sharing conversations and laughter. 

Family and friends spoke positively about the standard of care and support people received. Relatives said people's safety was promoted. One relative said, “It’s a very safe service and the safest [person] has ever been. I am happy with everything they do.”
