About
Rosglen Neurological Centre is a residential home in Darfield, a village about five miles from Barnsley town centre. It provides long-term and transitional residential support for adults recovering from a brain injury or living with a neurological condition. These include stroke, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis and motor neurone disease. Each person has a written support plan that is reviewed with them, and the home pays particular attention to cognitive needs such as attention and memory. The home has six en-suite bedrooms, two communal lounges, a dining room and a garden. Barnsley is reachable by bus, and nearby shops, leisure facilities, parks and walking routes are close by. The Care Quality Commission rated the home Good overall in its 2020 report, and gave it Good ratings for all five key questions: safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led.
What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 11 February 2020 · Last inspected 18 December 2019
Inspectors found a friendly, welcoming atmosphere, with staff and managers described as caring and approachable, and the person living at the home was well cared for. Care plans were individual, supported people's goals beyond physical needs, and drew praise from external professionals. Inspectors noted that admissions assessments needed minor improvement to better consider how residents would get along, and that workforce diversity sometimes affected outcomes for people.
- Staff and managers were described as caring, approachable and knowledgeable about people's needs
- Personalised care plans addressed people's wider identity and aspirations, and staff helped people work towards their goals
- Meals suited people's dietary needs and preferences, and a range of activities matched individual interests
- Complaints were handled well, staff were safely recruited and trained, and regular supervision supported their development
- When more people lived at the home, the mix of residents was not always positive, so the admissions assessment process needed minor improvement
- A lack of diversity in the workforce sometimes led to poorer outcomes for people; the management team said this would be addressed in its next recruitment drive
