What inspectors found
CQC: Requires improvementReport published 27 February 2023 · Last inspected 30 November 2022
Inspectors carried out a focused review after concerns about how risks to people were managed, and the home remains rated requires improvement. Staff were visibly present, rotas were fully staffed, and inspectors found people were supported in the least restrictive way possible, with mealtimes and healthcare links generally working well. Several issues were raised, including medicines handling on the day of inspection and visiting restrictions during an outbreak.

- People and relatives said they felt safe, and staff knew how to recognise and respond to abuse
- Most people had a positive mealtime experience, with food and drink matched to dietary needs
- Visiting healthcare professionals gave positive feedback about the care staff provided
- Medicines were not robustly managed, including late morning medicines and laxatives given without effective cross-checking
- Some recruitment checks were not recorded as followed up, and staff did not receive regular formal supervision in 2022
- Some relatives reported being barred from visiting during an infection outbreak despite essential care giver status, and face masks were not always worn correctly
