What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 31 March 2023 · Last inspected 6 March 2023
Inspectors found that care at this 34-bed home for older people has improved since the new provider and registered manager took over, with people, relatives, staff and visiting professionals all describing a more settled and upbeat service. Staff are reported to be well trained, supported through supervision and confident in raising concerns, and people are supported to make their own choices. The report describes an ongoing programme of refurbishment and a shift to electronic care records that relatives can see.
- Relatives and professionals report that people are safer and happier, and that relatives feel more reassured about their family members' care.
- Staff say they receive the training they need, have regular supervision, and feel supported by the registered manager and senior team.
- Care records, risk assessments and daily notes are kept electronically in real time, and relatives can view their family member's care plan and daily updates.
- Medicines are managed safely, there are enough staff to meet people's needs, and infection prevention and control measures are in place.
- The report notes that shortfalls were found when the current provider took over the service, and that an action plan was put in place to address them.
- Redecoration and refurbishment were still under way at the time of the inspection.
