What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 1 March 2024 · Last inspected 17 November 2023

Inspectors found that people were treated with dignity and respect, staff encouraged independence, and visitors could see people without restrictions. Staffing was judged sufficient, and people and relatives said they could raise concerns with managers who were visible and approachable. The report also found that the service needs to improve, particularly in managing environmental risks, medicines and recruitment.

Strengths noted
  • People were treated with dignity and respect, and staff supported their independence.
  • There were enough staff on duty to support people safely, and infection prevention and control was well managed.
  • Care plans were personalised, activities took place in the home, and people's communication needs were considered.
  • The registered manager was visible and accessible, and the service learned lessons after accidents and incidents.
Areas to improve
  • Not all environmental risks to people had been identified and addressed.
  • Medicines were not always managed well, and recruitment records had gaps that were not picked up by audits.
  • Quality assurance systems were not always effective, care needs were not always reassessed when they changed, and some training and Mental Capacity Act practice needed improvement.
