What inspectors found

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 7 April 2021. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

We found the following examples of good practice.

People were supported to maintain contact with their family. This was done via window and outside visits, phone calls and video-calling. One person told us how they enjoyed speaking with one of their relatives via video-calling when they were unable to visit them outside.

Most of the people living in the home were used to attending day centres and going on outings before the pandemic. To ensure people still had activities to participate in, outings were adapted. For example, the registered manager told us they had purchased different ice creams for people to have when they had been out for a drive.

There were large communal areas in the service so people could maintain social distancing and enjoy time together participating in activities such as music groups. People could also access the large outdoor area for a walk.

People's individual risks in relation to COVID-19 had been assessed and planned for.

Where people were anxious about wearing masks, staff supported them to get used to wearing masks so they could safely attend healthcare appointments. Staff encouraged people to put the mask under their chin so they got used to having it on, then slowly encouraged people to start wearing it over their mouth.

The people living in the service and staff took part in the testing programme and were tested at the intervals stipulated by government guidelines.
