People were supported to live healthy lives, and this had included nutritious meals, monitoring of fluid intake and exercise. Staff told us they were passionate about supporting people and ensuring they lived their best lives at Great Oaks. People’s needs were assessed, and care was person centred, this included planning for their future. A dedicated team supported people to access activities and hobbies which they enjoyed.
