What inspectors found
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 27 September 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
People were kept safe by staff that had good knowledge about people's needs and how to manage them. Staff understood their safeguarding responsibilities and people told us they felt safe living at the home. The manager made sure staff were recruited following safe processes and there were enough staff to keep people safe. We have made recommendations about the administration of some medicines and the management of infection and prevention control.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
People benefitted from the fact that the home was run by a strong leadership team, meaning risks were assessed and mitigated. There was a positive culture at the home, we received positive feedback from people and their relatives. A relative said, "Everywhere is clean and tidy, the food is fine, and they offer alternatives if the menu options aren't suitable." Staff enjoyed their jobs and spoke highly of the manager.
People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible and in their best interests; the policies and systems in the service supported this practice.
