What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 19 January 2023 · Last inspected 20 December 2022

Whitebriars is a residential home for older adults, some of whom live with dementia, and it was supporting 24 people at the time of the visit. Inspectors found that people were protected from harm, with staff trained to recognise and report abuse, medicines given by trained staff, and enough staff on each shift. The registered manager was well regarded by people, relatives and staff, and the management team worked closely with the care staff.

Strengths noted
  • Risk assessments cover areas such as falls and the development of pressure ulcers.
  • Staff were recruited safely, and lessons from accidents and incidents are shared with the team to reduce repeat events.
  • People are supported to make their own choices, and care is delivered in the least restrictive way, in line with their best interests.
  • Audits identify trends, and managers act on feedback from people, relatives and staff. The home also has positive working relationships with other health and social care professionals.
