What inspectors found

From the Care Quality Commission's assessment published 21 November 2025 (assessment visit 16 September 2025). Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Date of assessment 1 October to 31 October 2025. We visited the care home on 1 October and 8 October 2025. Ivybank House Care Home is a residential care home providing personal care and support to up to 43 older people. At the time of this assessment there were 33 people using the service. Our unannounced assessment was carried out in response to information of concern about the safety of the care being delivered. This assessment was also prompted following concerns raised by health professionals about how the service was not working in partnership to effectively manage people’s health needs. This was a comprehensive assessment, and we reviewed all of the quality statements. This was the first comprehensive assessment for this provider.
