CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 31 March 2023 · Last inspected 7 February 2023

The Leylands is a care home supporting 19 people, including older people, people living with dementia, and people with learning or physical disabilities. This focused inspection looked at safety and leadership after concerns were raised, and inspectors found no sign that those concerns had put people at risk. Staff were described as knowing how to keep people safe, and the registered manager and senior staff were seen as approachable.

Strengths noted
  • Medicines systems improved since the last inspection, and medicines were stored and given safely, with thorough medicines audits.
  • Risk assessments guide staff on meeting people's needs, and staff follow them.
  • There were enough staff to meet people's needs, and the home was clean with infection prevention systems in place.
  • Staff understood their roles, the registered manager was approachable, and staff received support through supervision and team meetings.
Areas to improve
  • Quality checks did not always identify gaps in staff recruitment files, or documentation and records that were completed inconsistently or inaccurately.
  • The provider remains in breach of regulations relating to governance, and the service has been rated requires improvement for five consecutive inspections.
  • Inspectors will ask the provider for an action plan setting out how quality and safety will be improved.
