What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 4 April 2023 · Last inspected 23 February 2023
Inspectors observed a calm pace on both visit days, with staff having time to talk with people. Relatives and a visiting professional described a homely atmosphere, and care plans were detailed, person-centred and covered eating, healthcare and personal preferences. The report also found the home well led, with staff encouraged to reflect on and improve their practice.
- Staff were seen to have time to spend with people, and people's clothing choices and personal priorities were respected.
- Medicines were managed safely, and risks were assessed and reviewed regularly, with guidance in care plans on reducing them.
- Relatives and people using the service gave positive feedback about care and food, and staff received relevant training and regular supervision.
- The provider was described as actively engaging with the local authority and other providers to improve care across the county.
- Some allegations of abuse were not shared with the local authority or notified to CQC; the registered manager said future allegations would be reported to both.
- Full employment histories and reasons for gaps in employment were not always recorded during recruitment; the provider has since changed its process.
- Mental capacity assessments were not always completed before applications were made under the Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards, because responsibility was unclear; this was addressed during the inspection.
