What inspectors found

Inspectors found West Villa, a residential home for up to 32 adults including people with dementia, delivering personal care across three floors in one adapted building. People said they felt safe, got their medicines on time, and were supported by staff who spoke well of management and the provider. Inspectors noted that some risk assessments had not been reviewed at the time of the visit, and that the recent move to electronic care records needed tightening so all planned care is recorded accurately.
