What inspectors found
CQC: Requires improvementReport published 21 December 2021 · Last inspected 12 November 2021
Inspectors rated St Leonards Court, a care home in Mundford, Norfolk for up to 25 older people, including some living with dementia, as Requires Improvement, down from Good in 2018. The focused inspection found that safeguarding allegations were not always reported to the local authority or the CQC, and that oversight of incidents and infection control were inconsistent. Staffing levels, recruitment, risk assessments, cleaning audits and medicines handling were described as adequate or improving.
- Staffing levels were judged sufficient to meet people's needs in a timely way, and vacancies had recently been filled
- Recruitment checks were followed to make sure staff were suitable to work with vulnerable people
- Medicines were managed safely, and medication errors were identified and acted on
- Staff received training and regular updates through the pandemic, and infection control and cleaning audits were being carried out
- Some allegations of abuse or harm were not reported to the local safeguarding team or the CQC, so inspectors could not be sure they were handled properly
- Incidents were not always overseen or managed effectively, and some recurred, which put people at risk of harm
- Infection prevention and control measures were not always followed consistently
