HIQA has praised the standard of care for residents of four disability services based in County Roscommon.
In newly published inspection reports, the health watchdog recorded high standards of care at the services run by the Brothers of Charity despite a handful of non-compliances being recorded.
These four centres, all run by the Brothers of Charity in Roscommon, provide a residential and respite service for people with a variety of additional needs.
Two non-compliances were found at the Bramble services - including information for residents and individual assessment and personal plan.
Inspectors claimed that residents were cared for and enjoyed a good quality of life, some weaknesses in governance presented a risk the standards might not be consistently maintained.
An inspection of the Fern service, which assists people with intellectual disabilities, noted just one non compliance out of 20 outcomes - with inspectors also reporting the atmosphere in the centre was warm, welcoming, relaxed and happy.
The Holly services were also inspected in June, where HIQA recommended that some improvements would be required in out of hours management support and some remedial actions at the premises.
Despite the inspectors' concerns, only one non-compliance from a total of 15 outcomes was recorded.
The Magnolia service was also inspected by Hiqa staff, where just one non-compliance was recorded - in the area of staffing in records kept on employees such as garda vetting checks and references]
