What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 1 February 2023 · Last inspected 10 January 2023

Inspectors found that the home was mostly warm and caring, with people feeling safe and well looked after, and that care plans and risk assessments were kept up to date and reviewed regularly. Feedback from people and staff about management was positive, and people were asked for their views and acted on. Inspectors also found shortfalls in safety checks, medicines practice, staff training against assessed needs, and oversight of the service, so the rating remains requires improvement.

Strengths noted
  • People and staff spoke positively about how the service is managed
  • A positive, caring culture was seen, with people treated with dignity and respect

Areas to improve

  • Medicines practices did not always match best practice guidance, and training did not always meet people's assessed needs
