What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 17 October 2023 · Last inspected 19 June 2023

Inspectors found that people living at Morton Manor, a home for up to 30 people including some living with dementia, were supported with choice and control, and that staff treated them with compassion and were in line with the person's preferences. People told inspectors they were happy with the support they received. However, the report found that the home did not consistently keep people safe, including gaps in infection prevention and control, medicines management, care planning, risk assessment and the provider's own quality checks.

Strengths noted
  • Inspectors observed staff treating people with compassion and kindness.
  • People said they were happy with the support they were receiving.
  • Staff were recruited safely, with the required checks completed before they started work.
  • Staff had training suited to their roles and to the needs of the people they supported, and the home worked well with other health and care organisations.
Areas to improve
  • Some infection prevention and control practices put people and staff at risk of cross infection.
  • Medicines were not always stored or given safely.
  • Care plans and risk assessments did not always contain important information or give staff enough guidance to manage risks.
