About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 12 January 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Cavendish Lodge is registered to provide nursing and personal care for up to 8 people who have a diagnosed mental health condition. At the time of our inspection visit there were 8 people living at the home. Care is provided across two floors and a communal lounge and dining area is located on the ground floor.
What inspectors found
People spoke positively about the support they received from the registered manager and staff to stay well and maintain their independence. However, the provider had experienced difficulties recruiting and retaining staff and staffing numbers were maintained by using temporary staff supplied through an agency. The high use of agency staff had impacted on consistency in following some of the provider's processes, particularly in relation to safe medicines management.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
Staff understood their safeguarding responsibilities and were able to describe the subtle signs that might indicate a person was worried or the subject of abuse. Changes in people's risks were communicated to staff during handovers between shifts. Staff described an open culture where learning from accidents and incidents was shared within the staff team.
People told us they received care that met their needs and spoke of the positive impact living at Cavendish Lodge had on their well-being. People at Cavendish Lodge were working towards achievable goals in their recovery under the provider's recovery programme.
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 provider and registered manager took a proactive approach to promoting equality and diversity to ensure the service was inclusive of the needs of people and staff.
