What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 28 September 2022 · Last inspected 9 August 2022

Inspectors found that staff were checked before being employed, received training for their roles, and felt supported and able to raise concerns with managers. Care plans guided staff on people's needs, health needs were monitored, and the home appeared clean with infection prevention measures in place. Inspectors said that risk management, staffing consistency and newer quality monitoring systems still needed further development.

Strengths noted
  • Staff were recruited through checks and were given support and training for their roles.
  • Medicines were given as prescribed by trained staff.
  • Feedback was gathered from people, relatives and staff, and regular meetings were offered to share information.
  • The home appeared clean, with cleaning schedules in place and infection prevention measures, including PPE use, followed.
Areas to improve
  • Management of risks to people's skin integrity, health needs and the environment needed further improvement.
  • Staffing levels and deployment needed further improvement so that people were consistently supported by staff who knew them well.
  • The systems for monitoring quality and safety needed more time to become established and sustained.
