About

Ashfield Nursing & Residential Home is a 32-bed home in Leeds, West Yorkshire, providing nursing and residential care. The home aims to be a safe, relaxed and homely place where residents feel at ease. Residents and, where appropriate, their families are encouraged to take part in care planning, with attention to medical, personal, cultural, psychological, social and spiritual needs. The home describes its approach as supportive without being restrictive, with respect for privacy, choice and independent decision-making.

The building includes a Victorian original with a newer wing extension and a car park. The home was started by Jennifer in 1983 and has since been led by her daughter Karen, who qualified as a Registered Nurse. The current Registered Manager has a background in nursing, pharmacy and care management and has a particular focus on dementia care. The Care Quality Commission rated the home Requires Improvement overall in 2023, with Good for effective, caring and responsive care and Requires Improvement for safe and well-led care.

What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 28 November 2023 · Last inspected 11 October 2023

Inspectors found that people using the service described staff as warm and attentive, and that staff knew each person's individual needs well. Families and friends were welcomed, and care plans and risk assessments were in place where they were needed. Oversight of quality and safety was not effective enough, however, and inspectors identified issues with fire safety, premises condition, staff training and supervision, and recruitment.

Strengths noted
  • People described staff as compassionate and attentive in their day-to-day support.
  • Staff showed a good understanding of each person's particular requirements.
  • Visiting relatives and friends were welcomed and encouraged to stay in touch in person.
  • People knew how to raise a complaint and felt able to voice their views.
Areas to improve
  • Quality monitoring did not identify and act on problems quickly enough, and one incident was not reported to the regulator.
  • A recent fire safety inspection found the home was not fully compliant, and some parts of the building were worn and need upgrading.
  • Not all staff had the training or regular supervision they needed, and recruitment checks need to be made safer.
