What inspectors found
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 10 March 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
People were safe living at Country Lodge Nursing Home. One person said, "The staff, and the food, are superb. We are being attended to by a group of ladies who will do anything for you". Staffing levels were sufficient to meet people's needs. Staff attended to people's needs promptly when they used their call bells. People received their medicines as required.

People were complimentary about staff and a relative told us, "She loves them all. They are very attentive and treat everyone as an individual. They accommodate any meal requests people have. For example, my Mum had a marmalade sandwich for breakfast as this is something she can manage better than toast or cereal. Anything she wants, they will make it for her". People had access to healthcare professionals as needed.
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.
The registered manager was sensitive and responsive to people's needs. Residents' meetings enabled people to make suggestions which were listened to. One person told us, "I suggested we choose a small, medium or large meal when we order our lunches to avoid unnecessary waste. They haven't started it yet, but they did say they would do". Audits had been implemented to monitor the quality of care and the home overall.
