What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 11 November 2021 · Last inspected 14 September 2021
Inspectors found that people using Ashurst Lodge, a residential home for eight people with mental health related support needs, spoke positively about living there. Staff were described as knowledgeable, kind and respectful, and people were involved in planning their own care and in decisions about their home. The report also identified some areas where records, medicine instructions and safety checks needed to be more detailed or effective.
- Staff had the knowledge and skills to support people well, recognised signs of ill health and encouraged healthy living.
- People's needs were assessed thoroughly, and they took part in planning and reviewing their care, including their goals and preferences.
- The service focused on building independence and gave people choice and control, including over décor and other decisions about their home.
- The service responded well to complaints, reviewed its quality, had an open and inclusive culture, and had established links with the local community.
- Instructions for medicines given only when needed were not detailed enough about how and when to give them, and the provider was asked to review these protocols.
- Care plans did not always spell out the support people needed to maintain healthy lifestyles, and records needed to be clearer so people received consistent support with medical advice.
- Some kitchen hygiene issues and a window that was not properly restricted were found, though the window was addressed straight away, and health and safety checks were not always effective enough to spot problems early.
