What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 23 December 2019 · Last inspected 3 December 2019
Inspectors found the home had enough staff to meet people's needs, with risk assessments in place and training and support improved for staff. Residents reported very good food, staff were described as kind and respectful of privacy and dignity, and people were offered activities they enjoyed. However, the report notes that quality-monitoring systems introduced by new management after a period of significant managerial change are recent and still need to become fully embedded.
