What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 21 July 2022 · Last inspected 16 February 2022

Inspectors found Hadrian House, a care home for up to 50 people, to be well-led, with governance systems in place to monitor quality. People had identified essential care givers, visitor arrangements were in place, and medicines were managed safely. Staffing levels were sufficient, with agency staff used to maintain safe ratios, though some relatives questioned the consistency of care from certain agency workers.

Strengths noted
  • Governance systems monitored quality across the service
  • Safeguarding systems were in place and accidents and incidents were analysed
  • Medicines were managed safely
  • Enough staff were deployed to support people
Areas to improve
  • COVID-19 testing did not always follow government guidance
  • Some staff did not always follow safe infection control practices, although action was taken promptly
  • One person felt unable to go outside when they wished, and inspectors made a recommendation about this
