About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 17 January 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Aston Court Care Home is a nursing home providing accommodation (over two floors) and nursing and personal care to a maximum of 52 older adults. At the time of our inspection 37 people lived at the home some of whom experienced dementia.

What inspectors found

Staffing did not always meet people's needs in a timely manner.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Governance systems were not entirely effective as they had not identified all issues found at this inspection.

The home was visibly clean but some improvements were required in relation to the maintenance of bathrooms.

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.

People were treated with kindness and respect and their independence and privacy were promoted.

The management team welcomed our inspection and understood the need to be open and honest about things that required improvement.
