What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 19 August 2019 · Last inspected 23 July 2019

Inspectors visited a large retirement village for people aged 55 and over, where some residents receive personal care with hygiene and eating. Residents spoke warmly about the carers and described the setting as hotel-like. Inspectors found staff were safely recruited, trained, and assessed before handling medicines, and that people were supported with healthcare, nutrition, and activities.

Strengths noted
  • Residents said care staff were friendly and helpful, and described the home positively
  • Staff were robustly recruited, received structured induction and wide-ranging training
  • Residents were supported to make choices and have control over their lives, with least restrictive practice
  • The village setting gave residents chances to socialise and take part in activities, and staff worked well with outside agencies
Areas to improve
  • In one case, a person's medicines ran out because prescriptions were not requested in time, so inspectors recommended improving medicines practice
