Read the rest of CQC's summary
We found the following examples of good practice.
The home had systems in place to support relatives to visit their family members, minimising the risk of infection. People were accessing the community safely.
We observed signage around the home to guide staff on the use of protective personal equipment (PPE).
COVID-19 tests for staff were being carried out in line with guidance. Staff also had regular lateral flow tests (LFT) to ensure any staff who were not presenting with any symptoms were identified promptly.
Risk assessments were in place to consider and reduce any impact to people who used the service and staff who may be disproportionately at risk of COVID-19. These included Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic groups (BAME), people with learning disabilities and people with dementia.
