What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 25 November 2022 · Last inspected 14 September 2022

Inspectors looked at a care home with nursing that supports people living with dementia, older people, younger adults, and people with physical disabilities or detained under the Mental Health Act. The visit focused on the management of falls risk and on safety and leadership rather than a full inspection, following an incident that is still under separate CQC review. Staff were described as knowing how to recognise and report concerns, and the report found no evidence that people were at risk from the falls issue examined.

Strengths noted
  • Risks to people's personal care and environment were assessed, documented and reviewed regularly
  • Staffing levels were considered good, with one-to-one support provided where needed
  • Regular audits and analysis of accidents and incidents have helped reduce incidents and improve care
  • A caring, person-centred culture focused on people living with dementia, supported by positive feedback from professionals
Areas to improve
  • The report examined concerns about how falls risks were managed following a serious injury, and the incident itself remains under further CQC investigation
