What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 13 June 2019 · Last inspected 15 May 2019
Inspectors found that people living in this home for older people felt safe and at ease with a consistent, trained staff team. Mealtimes were a social part of the day, and people received help with eating, drinking, taking medicines and reaching health services. After the unexpected death of the previous registered manager, the nominated individual kept management continuous, and the team shared a clear direction for care.
- People said they felt safe and were familiar with the staff and with each other.
- Dietary needs and preferences were assessed, and people who needed help with eating and drinking received it.
- Care plans were detailed, respectful and reviewed to reflect people's changing needs, and people knew how to complain and felt listened to.
- The clinical lead completed an accredited end of life care training programme and used it to develop end of life care in the home, which staff were proud of.
