What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 14 February 2020 · Last inspected 19 December 2019
Inspectors found that people receiving personal care at this home for older people felt safe, and that staff supported them with choice, respect and attention to privacy and dignity. Each person had a named keyworker, and the home asked residents, relatives and staff for their views and used them to make changes. Inspectors identified two areas that needed attention: medicines management and outstanding electrical safety actions.
- Staff were described as kind and caring, treating people with respect and dignity, and inspectors saw checks being used to keep this standard in everyday practice.
- There were enough staff to meet people's needs, staff were trained and followed good practice, and people had choices about their care, meals and health monitoring.
- Care plans gave staff guidance on supporting people in the way they wanted, and wishes for end of life care had been recorded.
- Complaints were handled effectively, quality assurance systems monitored care, and the registered manager had good links with local services and organisations.
- Medicines were not always managed safely, and inspectors recommended that medication errors be investigated more promptly.
- Some actions from the last electrical safety test had not been completed; the provider acted immediately and confirmed the work was done after the inspection.
