What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 30 April 2019 · Last inspected 6 March 2019
Inspectors rated Rider House good overall, with most areas meeting the expected standard and many improvements required at the previous inspection now in place. Staff were described as kind, people were involved in decisions about their care, and their privacy was respected. Inspectors said the home needed to improve how responsive it is, as care was not always tailored to each person and staff had limited time for activities.

- Medicines were given on time by trained staff, and safe recruitment and risk assessment practices were in use.
- People were supported to eat a balanced diet and had drinks available throughout the day.
- Staff worked well with other agencies to deliver care and secure access to healthcare, and followed the Mental Capacity Act.
- Care was not always personalised, as staff were focused on routine tasks.
- Staff had limited time to spend on activities with people, and the report says responsiveness needs to improve.
