What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 8 August 2023 · Last inspected 19 July 2023

Hulton House is a dementia-focused home with four units, supporting 53 people when inspectors visited in July 2023. Inspectors found that people were supported to make their own choices, that medicines were managed safely, and that the building was clean and tidy. The report also describes a provider that responded to earlier problems, with a manager and team whose culture was well regarded.

Strengths noted
  • People were encouraged to make their own decisions, and staff acted in people's best interests while limiting restrictions where possible.
  • Staff were recruited safely, were trained for their roles, and understood and worked to reduce risks to people.
  • People said they felt safe, safeguarding systems were in place, and concerns had been reported appropriately.
  • The manager, deputy manager and wider team were praised for their responsiveness and the positive culture, and relatives could visit without restriction.
Areas to improve
  • Some people, staff and relatives raised worries about staffing levels, and the provider has since increased staffing in response.
  • The provider's internal oversight systems still needed strengthening to remain effective.
