About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 3 March 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Newlands is a residential care home providing personal and nursing care for up to 50 people. The service provides support for adults, including people with living with dementia and mental health needs. At the time of our inspection there were 42 people using the service.

What inspectors found
People supported in this home and their family members told us they were very satisfied with the care this service provides. One family member summed it up as, "Newlands have got it right, you would think that it is their own family they are looking after."
Read the rest of CQC's summary
We found people were safe. There were effective systems in place to help ensure the safety of people living and working in the home. Though there had been minor gaps in medicine records, these were addressed by the registered manager during the inspection.
People received consistent quality care because the registered manager followed the provider's auditing and quality procedures. People found the registered manager to be approachable and responsive.
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.
