Some areas of the home had been refurbished since our last inspection in May 2019 where it had been identified as an area of improvement.
Feedback from involved health and social care professionals was extremely positive about the service provided. They told us the service was well managed and had resulted in positive outcomes for their clients.
We were assured the service met good infection prevention and control guidelines. People were protected from the risk of acquiring infections and the premises were kept clean and hygienic. Personal protective equipment (PPE) was in good supply and staff were following the latest guidance for its use. Both people using the service and staff participated in the testing programme for COVID-19 in line with current published guidance.
Access to the home was restricted for non-essential visitors due to the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions in place at the time of our visit. The service had audited and improved their infection control processes in line with COVID-19 risks. Cleaning schedules had been enhanced and risks from waste disposal mitigated.
