What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 3 June 2020 · Last inspected 5 August 2019
Inspectors found that trained staff supported residents with patience and friendliness, and that mealtimes were a sociable occasion. Group activities and one-to-one activities were both offered, and the home had good links with the local community. The report describes a person-centred culture in which the registered manager and staff were committed to improving the service.
- Staff had been trained in safeguarding and knew what to do if they had a concern
- Medicines were stored and given safely by staff who had completed training and assessments
- Risks were assessed and managed in ways that supported people's independence, with healthcare professionals involved when needed
- Staff treated people with dignity and respect, and people were encouraged to take part in social activities
- The quality of care plans varies, and some are not detailed enough, which could affect the care and support people receive
