What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 6 November 2023 · Last inspected 13 October 2023

Inspectors found that people felt safe and happy living at the home, could receive visits from family at any time, and described staff as kind and caring. Staffing was sometimes stretched, with occasional delays in answering call bells, though people said this had not affected them. Some staff shared concerns with inspectors about the registered manager's approach.

Strengths noted
  • Medicines are handled safely, with staff trained and medicines records found to be complete.
  • Staff were recruited safely and have training in safeguarding and infection prevention.
  • The home is clean and fresh-smelling, and people said they were satisfied with the cleanliness of their rooms.
  • Relatives said they can raise concerns with the registered manager and feel listened to, and the provider visits regularly to check quality.
Areas to improve
  • At times staff were busy, which could delay answers to call bells. The registered manager now monitors response times.
  • Some staff were less positive about the registered manager's approach and raised concerns with inspectors. The report recommends the provider listen to and respond to staff feedback.
