What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 16 June 2022 · Last inspected 19 April 2022

Inspectors found that staffing levels reflect people's needs, with agency staff used to cover absences, and that staff understand how to manage risks and recognise abuse. Relatives spoken with were happy with the home and its staff, and the home was described as clean, well maintained and following good infection control. Leadership had been unsettled by the lack of a stable management team, but a newly appointed registered manager has begun to raise staff morale and address earlier concerns.

Strengths noted
  • A newly appointed registered manager has lifted staff morale and begun making improvements
  • Medicines were found to be managed safely across the home
  • Staff are trained in safeguarding and know how to report concerns, and pre-employment checks are carried out
  • The home is clean, well maintained and follows good infection control practice
Areas to improve
  • Inconsistent leadership had led to gaps in oversight of several areas, including staff supervision
  • Inspectors recommend reviewing and updating people's medicines information and care plans so they are accurate and current
