What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 27 September 2022 · Last inspected 2 September 2022
Inspectors found the home in good overall standing, with a long-standing practice of building relaxed, unrushed relationships between staff and people living there. Staff were described as knowing people well, and the home offered varied social activities, visiting was open, and a stable in-house team was in place. Medicines handling and care planning had improved since the previous inspection.
- Staff know people well and interact with them at an unhurried pace, with relaxed, friendly exchanges
- A varied programme of activities such as outings, gardening, book clubs and quizzes
- Open visiting arrangements, with no restrictions on relatives visiting
- Good infection control and a clean home, supported by housekeeping staff and regular health and safety checks
- Some quality assurance checks did not pick up medicines, care planning and risk assessment issues, so these systems need further improvement
- Risk assessments and care plans were not always completed after a fall or where people had certain activity-related risks
- Recording of some medicines, such as topical creams and pain patches, needs to be better
