What inspectors found
A programme of improvement and development was being driven by the new management team, who had been in place since March 2022. We found significant improvements had already been made.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
Care planning and risk assessment was clear, concise and provided enough information for staff to care for people. These documents had been updated when people's needs had changed. People's medicines were managed, monitored and administered safely and there were enough staff to provide care to people at the time they required it.
The service was clean and there were appropriate procedures in place to minimise the risk of the transmission of infections including COVID-19.
The new management team had acted upon areas for improvement identified by Norfolk County Council in February 2022. This included improvements to care planning, management processes and the mealtime experience. Further improvements were still in progress.
