What inspectors found
CQC: Requires improvementReport published 14 August 2023 · Last inspected 10 July 2023
Inspectors found that people were supported by caring staff and that safeguarding and infection control arrangements were effective. However, staffing levels were too low to meet people's needs promptly, and care and risk plans lacked enough detail to guide staff. Inspectors also raised concerns about medicine storage and stock checks, and about communication and support between management, staff and relatives.
- Staff were found to be caring in their approach to people
- Safeguarding systems were effective in protecting people from abuse
- Infection prevention and control measures were effective
- People were supported to make choices and keep control of their lives, with the least restrictive approach used where possible
- Staffing numbers were not sufficient to respond to people's needs in a timely way
- Some care and risk management plans lacked enough detail, so staff had no formal guidance on specific risks
- Prescribed creams were not stored correctly, and stock of a pain relief patch for one person needed better management
