What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 7 February 2023 · Last inspected 31 January 2023

Inspectors found that staff are patient and kind, including with people who show behaviours that challenge or who walk with purpose, and that people and relatives were satisfied with the care provided. Staff training was up to date, with regular supervision and performance appraisals, and people were supported to make choices and keep control of their lives. Inspectors also raised concerns about staffing, medicines, infection control and provider oversight.

Strengths noted
  • Staff were described as patient and kind, especially with people who show behaviours that challenge or who walk with purpose.
  • Staff training was up to date, and staff received regular supervision and performance appraisals.
  • People and relatives said they were satisfied with the care, and the home manager and deputy manager were noted to work well together.
  • People were supported to have choice and control, with decisions made in their best interests and in the least restrictive way possible.
Areas to improve
  • Staffing levels were not always sufficient to keep people safe or to make sure they received support in a timely way.
  • Medicines storage, checks and disposal needed improvement, and infection prevention and control was affected by how personal protective equipment was stored and by weak cleaning procedures.
  • Provider oversight needs strengthening: required documents for fit and proper persons were not obtained, some records could not be produced when requested, and audits did not always identify shortfalls.
