Report published 8 July 2021 · Last inspected 8 June 2021

Inspectors found that staff were kind and caring, and relatives spoke positively about the support their family members received.

Strengths noted
  • Inspectors observed staff interacting warmly and respectfully with people who lived there.
  • Relatives expressed strong approval of the care and support given to their loved ones.
  • Staff were recruited with the necessary checks in place, received suitable training, and trained staff handled medicines.

Areas to improve
