What inspectors found

People did not always have risks to their health and welfare effectively managed. Care plans and risk assessments did not always reflect the guidance and advice from professionals.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Audits were not effective in identifying where actions were needed to improve the assessment and monitoring of risks.

There was no oversight of the effectiveness of systems to monitor people's health and wellbeing. Where people had been assessed as needing monitoring of their food and fluid intake, this was not always carried out effectively.

Care plans did not always contain the necessary information to enable staff to provide safe support.

Medicines were managed safely, and people received their medicines in line with their prescription.

There were systems to identify when people needed safeguarding and staff understood their responsibilities to keep people safe.

People and relatives told us they felt safe and were happy with the care they received.
