What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 20 May 2021 · Last inspected 29 January 2021

Inspectors visited this extra care scheme, where older adults with personal care needs live in their own flats within one adapted building. People said they felt safe, staff were described as recruited safely, sufficient in number, following infection control procedures and feeling supported. The overall rating dropped from Good to Requires Improvement, mainly because of gaps in record-keeping and quality checks.

Strengths noted
  • People said they felt safe and would feel comfortable raising any concerns
  • People who receive help with their medicines said they were satisfied with that support
  • Staff were recruited safely, there were enough of them, and they followed the provider's infection control procedures
  • Feedback about the service was routinely sought, and people described highly positive experiences of living there
Areas to improve
  • Records about people's needs and risks were not always accurate or complete, and records of how incidents were analysed and learned from were not fully kept
  • Quality audits did not identify these recording problems, and a concern from the previous inspection had not been fully resolved, including one area of medicines management
  • The provider's investigation of allegations of financial abuse and theft was not thorough or robust, and individual care reviews were held less frequently
