What inspectors found
CQC: Requires improvementReport published 10 January 2023 · Last inspected 1 September 2022
Inspectors found that residents receive friendly, caring support from staff, and that people speak well of the staff and management. Meals are enjoyed and offer choice, and the home and garden are clean and free of obvious hazards. Improvements since the last inspection were noted, but the report says they are not yet fully established.

- Each person has a personalised risk assessment with guidance for staff on reducing risks.
- Staff are described as caring and friendly, and they take account of people's needs and preferences.
- Staff receive regular training and supervision, and the home holds regular meetings with staff and people.
- A staff recruitment breach was identified: one employee's file held only one reference, and another reference had not been checked to confirm it was genuine.
- Some staff induction records had not been signed off by a manager, so completion could not be confirmed.
- One person's care plan contains conflicting information about their communication needs, and activities are not always recorded. The newly introduced quality audits are not yet embedded in day-to-day practice.
