Read the rest of CQC's summary

Risks to people's safety and well-being were managed through a risk management process. There were sufficient staff deployed to meet people's needs. Medicines were managed safely, and people received their medicines as prescribed.

The provider's care recording system had improved. People had access to meaningful activities which had been adapted in line with current guidelines. Staff consistency enabled people to receive good care from staff who knew them well. Staff knew how to support people during end of life care.

The home was managed by a registered manager who had been in post since the last inspection and was committed to improving people's quality of life. The service had a management and staffing structure in place. However, this was not always clear to staff and as a result they were not always working well as a team. The provider had established an effective quality assurance system to monitor the quality and safety of the service. The service worked well with external social and health care professionals.
