About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 13 April 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
St John's Home is a residential care home providing accommodation for persons who require nursing or personal care to up to 50 people. The service provides support to older people. At the time of our inspection there were 30 people using the service.
What inspectors found
Some environmental risks were not always mitigated. The registered manager addressed these concerns following our inspection. People's needs were assessed, and clear risk assessments were in place to guide staff. However, risk assessments for high-risk medications were not in place. Staff received safeguarding training and knew what to do if they thought someone was at risk. Medicines were managed safely. There were safe systems of recruitment in place.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
Feedback about the service, staff and management was positive. Staff worked in effective partnership with external professionals. The management team had oversight of the service and demonstrated commitment to the continued development of the service. Actions were taken to develop and improve identified areas.
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.
