CQC: Requires improvementReport published 26 October 2022 · Last inspected 13 September 2022

Staff have often worked at the home for a long time and know people well, which inspectors saw as lowering the risk of immediate harm. People reported feeling safe, staff understood safeguarding, and medicines and infection control were managed safely with enough skilled staff on duty.
