What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 12 February 2020 · Last inspected 26 November 2019

Inspectors judged this 58-bed nursing home good overall, noting that staff were checked for safety, numbers met people's needs, and training covered medicines and infection control. Care plans were mostly sound, though some lacked detail, and staff knowledge helped tailor support. Gaps in wound care and PEG tube recordings were raised and quickly addressed by managers.

Strengths noted
  • Staff were described as kind and trained to deliver safe care, including medicines handling and infection control.
  • People were involved in planning their care, and risks were assessed with plans put in place to keep them safe.
  • People's choices and privacy were respected, with decisions made in their best interests and in the least restrictive way.
  • Quality monitoring systems were effective, and people knew who the manager was and felt comfortable raising concerns.
Areas to improve
  • Some care plans lacked certain details needed to guarantee safe care.
  • Recording gaps were found in wound care and in the management of PEG feeding tubes, which managers acted on immediately.
