Read the rest of CQC's summary
We found the following examples of good practice.
Care plans considered people's individual risk to COVID-19 and how to support them to self isolate. Where people lacked capacity, plans were made in people's best interests and involved the person, their loved ones and relevant professionals. However, staff were not risk assessed to consider COVID-19 and their individual needs.
Cleaning schedules were enhanced to include high touch areas and two hourly sanitisation of the home.
Staff wore Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in line with government guidance. Designated areas were available for staff to don and doff PPE.
People's observations, such as blood pressure and oxygen levels, were taken weekly and discussed with the GP in a weekly ward round. This meant staff could monitor any changes in people's health and seek medical support as required.
The provider's policies had been updated to consider the impact of COVID-19. There was a pandemic policy that gave guidance to support the service during this time.
