What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 29 August 2023 · Last inspected 4 August 2023

Inspectors found that people at Fremantle Court generally felt safe, and that staff were well regarded and enough in number to meet people's needs. The premises were described as clean and well kept, and handovers and daily morning meetings helped staff stay informed about each person's health and wellbeing. Some people raised concerns about language barriers affecting how staff communicated with them, and managers have changed several times in recent years.

Strengths noted
  • People said they felt safe, with safeguarding systems in place and staff confident to raise concerns with senior staff.
  • Risks to health and safety were managed effectively, and the building was clean, well maintained and regularly checked.
  • Staff were recruited through sound processes, and people gave positive feedback about them.
  • Medicines were handled safely, records were well kept, and staff's medicines practice was regularly assessed.
Areas to improve
  • A couple of people felt that where staff spoke English as a second language, this created barriers in how they were spoken with.
  • Protocols for medicines prescribed for occasional use need improving so they are centred on each person's needs.
  • The service has had several changes of manager in recent years, which staff, relatives and others commented on; they hope the current manager stays.
