What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 6 January 2022 · Last inspected 17 December 2021
Inspectors found that people were supported to take their prescribed medicines on time and could ask for extra help, such as additional pain relief. Staff were described as understanding how to keep people safe and as meeting individual needs in a person-centred way, and the registered manager was said to work well with people and with health and social care professionals. Records for some topical creams were inconsistent, which the report identifies as an area to tighten.
- Staff kept clear records when supporting people to take tablet and liquid medicines.
- Infection prevention and control procedures were sound, had been updated for COVID-19, and included measures to limit the spread of infection by visitors.
- Staffing levels were judged sufficient for people's needs, and extra bank staff can now be called on to cover unexpected absences.
- The registered manager built good working relationships with health and social care professionals.
- Records showing people were supported to use emollient creams were inconsistent, with some days where no entry was made.
- Inspectors recommended that the provider review its medicines management practice so that procedures are followed consistently.
