What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 11 October 2023 · Last inspected 7 September 2023
Holly House is a small home for up to nine people, with a focus on supporting younger adults living with dementia and mental health conditions. Inspectors found that staff understood the risks people faced, managed medicines safely, and were supported by enough staff, while the report also highlights gaps in how people's involvement in care planning was recorded.
- Safeguarding systems and processes are in place to protect people from harm.
- Staff are described as kind and caring, and people's independence and dignity are respected.
- Staff say they feel valued and supported, can raise concerns with managers, and have been recruited and trained appropriately.
- The home is clean, uses effective infection prevention measures, and has bright, spacious shared areas.
- Care plan reviews did not consistently record input from people, their families or their representatives.
- For people who lack capacity, the records did not always make clear how they or their representative had been involved.
