Report published 16 August 2023 · Last inspected 18 July 2023

Inspectors found that the home, which supports older people and people living with dementia, was clean and tidy, and that people felt safe and were encouraged to receive visits from family. Relatives generally spoke positively about staff, and staff and families said the new manager was approachable and that improvements were under way.
