About

Fairmont Residential Home is a purpose-built care home in Fulwood, Preston, with 23 registered beds. It provides residential care and specialist support for physical disabilities. Its spacious rooms are peaceful, and many have an en-suite toilet and washing facilities. Some rooms suit residents with mobility needs, and every bedroom has a nurse call system. Residents can bring familiar furniture and keepsakes, and a safe, enclosed garden offers space for fresh air and visits.

Before admission, the Home Manager assesses each prospective resident to check that their needs can be met. Care plans are drawn up with the resident, their relatives and other medical professionals, and cover daily routines, preferences, dignity and risk. Each resident has a named key worker, and the home works with local health and social services.

The Care Quality Commission rated Fairmont Good overall in its 2020 report. It rated the home Requires Improvement for safety, and Good for being effective, caring, responsive and well-led.

What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 13 February 2020 · Last inspected 7 January 2020

Inspectors found that people living at the home, which supports up to 23 people with a range of needs including dementia, were receiving good care that met their individual needs. Staff were described as kind and caring, with enough of them on duty, and people said they felt safe. Activities were offered and inspectors saw them taking place during the visit.

Strengths noted
  • Inspectors found sufficient staff on duty to meet people's needs, and people said they felt safe.
  • People's health needs were supported through involvement of a range of professionals, and staff received training, supervision and appraisal.
  • People were supported to make choices and to have control over their lives, with care delivered in the least restrictive way.
  • The registered manager and provider were praised by people using the service, and the provider visited regularly and knew people well.
Areas to improve
  • Some risk assessments needed more detail to ensure they reflected how to support people's individual needs.
  • Inspectors asked for observations of people to take place after falls, and the registered manager said this would be put in place.
  • Recruitment records needed to show staff employment history, and inspectors asked that this be considered as part of the recruitment process.
