About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 29 June 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Baytrees Nursing Home is a residential care home providing personal and nursing care to up to 30 people with a variety of health care needs, such as Parkinson's disease, stroke or frailty of old age. At the time of our inspection there were 27 people using the service in one adapted building.
What inspectors found
Some medicines had not been disposed of as required. Prescription labels for some of these had been removed and the medicines retained in stock. Some medicines had been removed from their packaging so it was not clear who the medicines had been prescribed for. People were at risk of receiving medicines that had not been prescribed for them.

Systems for monitoring and measuring the service overall had not identified issues found at this inspection.
The home was clean and well-maintained. One person said, "They come in and clean my room. If I'm sleeping, they won't disturb me. They keep the house clean and if they didn't, they'd get an earful from the boss!"
People felt safe living at the home, and staff were trained to recognise signs of potential abuse and how to protect people from the risk of harm. There were sufficient trained staff to meet people's care and support needs, and new staff were recruited safely.
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's diverse needs were recognised and catered for by staff who felt supported in their roles. One person said, "I think it's good here, it's all right".
Residents' meetings were organised and enabled people to comment about the care they received; these were reviewed and actions taken if needed.
