What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 14 April 2023 · Last inspected 2 February 2023

Inspectors found that people using this care home are treated kindly by staff and that their privacy is respected. Medicines are managed safely, staff are trained and their competence is checked, and individual risks are assessed so staff know how to keep people safe. The report also describes a mixed picture on leadership and communication, and says the home's oversight systems did not identify certain safety issues or notify CQC of notifiable events.

Strengths noted
  • People said staff treat them kindly and respect their privacy.
  • Medicines are handled safely and staff receive training with their competence assessed.
  • Risks to people are assessed and recorded, giving staff clear guidance on keeping people safe.
  • People and their relatives have regular chances to give feedback through surveys and meetings, and people are supported to make choices and keep control of their lives.
Areas to improve
  • The home's governance systems did not identify and act on safety issues found at this inspection, or on failures to notify CQC of notifiable events.
  • Relatives' views on leadership were mixed, and some felt communication from the home was poor and needed to improve.
