What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 17 November 2022 · Last inspected 10 October 2022

Inspectors found that people living in this home for older people and those with dementia felt safe and were looked after by caring staff. Staff knew how to protect people from harm, and the manager was described as supportive and approachable. Concerns remained about how some risks were assessed and recorded.

Strengths noted
  • Staff recruitment was safe, and there were enough staff to meet people's needs.
  • Medicines were handled safely and as prescribed, and staff understood safeguarding signs to look for.
  • Infection prevention and control processes were in place and followed current government guidance.
  • The management structure was clear, with regular oversight from the provider, and people and relatives were positive about the service.
Areas to improve
  • Some risks to people's care were not fully assessed, and care plans lacked detail, including around known health needs and the risk of falls.
  • A review of where staff were located in the service at any one time was needed to better manage known risks.
  • Governance systems did not identify all the concerns inspectors found, and action was not always taken promptly.
