What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 11 January 2022 · Last inspected 15 December 2021
Inspectors found that Ledbury Nursing Home, which cared for 26 people at the time of the visit, kept people safe through staff who knew how to reduce risks to physical health and wellbeing, and who used equipment and practices to lower infection risk. Medicines management had improved since the previous inspection, staffing levels were judged sufficient, and staff received induction and ongoing training. The report describes a manager who is working to build a supportive, learning-focused culture, with quality checks now more effective than before.
- Staff recognised and acted on risks to people's physical health and mental wellbeing, an area that had needed improvement last time
- Improvements to medicines management meant people received the medicines they needed
- Recruitment checks and staffing levels were considered adequate to meet people's needs
- Quality monitoring has been strengthened, and the manager is building a supportive culture for staff
