About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 11 November 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Chollacott House Nursing Home (hereafter referred to as Chollacott House) is a residential home that provides personal and nursing care for older people. Chollacott House accommodates 42 people in one adapted building. At the time of the inspection 29 people lived at the service.

What inspectors found

People's care records were not always reflective of their care or health needs. We found aspects of people's care experience could be improved further. For example, some people were not treated in a manner that always promoted their dignity. Furthermore, people's social care needs were not being attended to and there were prolonged periods of time where people did not receive meaningful engagement with staff. People were supported by staff who understood how to recognise and escalate safeguarding concerns. There were adequate numbers of staff to support people with their care and health needs. Staff had been recruited safely and received an induction and supervision. Staff followed good hygiene practices.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

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.

Staff understood their roles and responsibilities. Quality assurance systems were not always effectively used to monitor and drive improvement. The service had partnerships with other agencies such as health and social care professionals to meet people's needs.
