What inspectors found
CQC: GoodReport published 9 August 2021 · Last inspected 13 July 2021
Residents, most of whom live with dementia, told inspectors they were content with the support they received at this home for 60 people. Staff were described as understanding the risks people face, and medicines were managed in an orderly way so that people received them on time. Inspectors also noted an open culture that actively sought feedback from residents, families, professionals and staff.
- Inspectors found people shielded from preventable harm and abuse, and residents said they were satisfied with their care.
- Medicines were well organised and given at the correct times.
- The premises were clean, and infection prevention followed current guidance, including for COVID-19.
- The provider was keen to learn from incidents and worked closely with community health and social care professionals.
- Not all staff had received up-to-date training, although a time-limited action plan was already in place to close the gaps.
- The inspection was prompted by concerns about a rise in the number of falls incidents.
- The CQC will closely monitor the provider's progress on the training gaps.
