What inspectors found
CQC: Requires improvementReport published 2 February 2023 · Last inspected 6 December 2022
Inspectors found that staff know the people they support well and understand their individual needs, and that families speak highly of the care their relatives receive. Staff are described as committed and keen to improve the service, and they report confidence in the changes under way. Some everyday care is affected by a reliance on temporary workers from agencies.
- Staff are knowledgeable about the people they support and show real commitment to them.
- Families praise the care provided by staff and welcome the return of resident meetings.
- Medicines are handled safely and in line with people's preferences.
- Staff understand safeguarding duties, and recruitment checks were carried out safely.
- Heavy use of agency workers, and staffing levels and how staff are deployed, do not always meet people's needs.
- Care plans and risk assessments do not always clearly describe people's needs or how to meet them.
- Provider audits and oversight have not reliably identified and resolved problems, and actions are not always taken promptly.
